[PATCH v2 net-next 0/6] sfc: TXQ refactor

[PATCH v2 net-next 0/6] sfc: TXQ refactor

[Edward Cree]

Refactor and unify partner-TXQ handling in the EF100 and legacy drivers.

The main thrust of this series is to remove from the legacy (Siena/EF10)
 driver the assumption that a netdev TX queue has precisely two hardware
 TXQs (checksummed and unchecksummed) associated with it, so that in
 future we can have more (e.g. for handling inner-header checksums) or
 fewer (e.g. to free up hardware queues for XDP usage).

Changes from v1:
 * better explain patch #1 in the commit message, and rename
   xmit_more_available to xmit_pending
 * add new patch #2 applying the same approach to ef100, for consistency

Edward Cree (6):
  sfc: add and use efx_tx_send_pending in tx.c
  sfc: make ef100 xmit_more handling look more like ef10's
  sfc: use tx_queue->old_read_count in EF100 TX path
  sfc: use efx_channel_tx_[old_]fill_level() in Siena/EF10 TX datapath
  sfc: rewrite efx_tx_may_pio
  sfc: remove efx_tx_queue_partner

[PATCH v2 net-next 1/6] sfc: add and use efx_tx_send_pending in tx.c

[Edward Cree]

Instead of using efx_tx_queue_partner(), which relies on the assumption
 that tx_queues_per_channel is 2, efx_tx_send_pending() iterates over
 txqs with efx_for_each_channel_tx_queue().
We unconditionally set tx_queue->xmit_pending (renamed from
 xmit_more_available), then condition on xmit_more for the call to
 efx_tx_send_pending(), which will clear xmit_pending.  Thus, after an
 xmit_more TX, the doorbell is un-rung and xmit_pending is true.

[PATCH v2 net-next 2/6] sfc: make ef100 xmit_more handling look more like ef10's

[Edward Cree]

This should cause no functional change; merely make there only be one
 design of xmit_more handling to understand.  As with the EF10/Siena
 version, we set tx_queue->xmit_pending when we queue up a TX, and
 clear it when we ring the doorbell (in ef100_notify_tx_desc).
While we're at it, make ef100_notify_tx_desc static since nothing
 outside of ef100_tx.c uses it.

Instead of open-coding the calculation with efx_tx_queue_partner(), use
 the functions that iterate over numbers of queues other than 2 with
 efx_for_each_channel_tx_queue().

[PATCH v2 net-next 5/6] sfc: rewrite efx_tx_may_pio

[Edward Cree]

Use efx_for_each_channel_tx_queue() rather than efx_tx_queue_partner().
Make some related simplifications of efx_nic_tx_is_empty() to remove
 entry points that aren't used.
