| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make it possible to always use a single memcpy() or to provide a direct link to a packet on the ring buffer by creating virtual mapping for two copies of the ring buffer with vmap(). Utilize currently empty hv_ringbuffer_cleanup() to do the unmap. While on it, replace sizeof(struct hv_ring_buffer) check in hv_ringbuffer_init() with BUILD_BUG_ON() as it is a compile time check.

* Drivers: hv: vmbus: Implement APIs to support "in place" consumption of ↵K. Y. Srinivasan2016-04-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | vmbus packets Implement APIs for in-place consumption of vmbus packets. Currently, each packet is copied and processed one at a time and as part of processing each packet we potentially may signal the host (if it is waiting for room to produce a packet). These APIs help batched in-place processing of vmbus packets. We also optimize host signaling by having a separate API to signal the end of in-place consumption. With netvsc using these APIs, on an iperf run on average I see about 20X reduction in checks to signal the host. Signed-off-by: K. Y.

* Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix signaling logic in hv_need_to_signal_on_read()K. Y. Srinivasan2016-04-301-6/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On the consumer side, we have interrupt driven flow management of the producer. It is sufficient to base the signaling decision on the amount of space that is available to write after the read is complete. The current code samples the previous available space and uses this in making the signaling decision. This state can be stale and is unnecessary. Since the state can be stale, we end up not signaling the host (when we should) and this can result in a hang. Fix this problem by removing the unnecessary check. I would like to thank Arseney Romanenko <arseneyr@microsoft.com> for pointing out this issue. Also, issue a full memory barrier before making the signaling descision to correctly deal with potential reordering of the write (read index) followed by the read of pending_sz. Signed-off-by: K. Y.

* Drivers: hv: vmbus: Give control over how the ring access is serializedK. Y. Srinivasan2016-02-081-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | On the channel send side, many of the VMBUS device drivers explicity serialize access to the outgoing ring buffer. Give more control to the VMBUS device drivers in terms how to serialize accesss to the outgoing ring buffer. The default behavior will be to aquire the ring lock to preserve the current behavior.

| | | | | | | | | | The function hv_ringbuffer_read() is called always on a pre-assigned CPU.

* Drivers: hv: ring_buffer: eliminate hv_ringbuffer_peek()Vitaly Kuznetsov2015-12-151-28/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, there is only one user for hv_ringbuffer_read()/ hv_ringbuffer_peak() functions and the usage of these functions is: - insecure as we drop ring_lock between them, someone else (in theory only) can acquire it in between; - non-optimal as we do a number of things (acquire/release the above mentioned lock, calculate available space on the ring, ...) twice and this path is performance-critical.

* Drivers: hv_vmbus: Fix signal to host conditionChristopher Oo2015-08-051-11/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes a bug where previously hv_ringbuffer_read would pass in the old number of bytes available to read instead of the expected old read index when calculating when to signal to the host that the ringbuffer is empty. Since the previous write size is already saved, also changes the hv_need_to_signal_on_read to use the previously read value rather than recalculating it.

* Drivers: hv: vmbus: Enable interrupt driven flow controlK. Y. Srinivasan2014-09-241-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In win8 we have a feature that allows for interrupt driven flow management for host/guest communication. For instance, if the host were blocked because there was no space available in the ringbuffer, the host could request that the guest send an interrupt when space becomes available in the ringbuffer (when the guest drains the ringbuffer). While this feature was implemented in the guest a while ago, we had not advertised that the guest supported this feature. This patch advertises the support to the host. For pre-win8 hosts, this has no effect since the size of the ringbuffer control structure has not changed and all changes have been backward compatible - unused/reserved space has been used to implement this feature. In this version of the patch I have cleaned up the commit log based on feedback from Greg KH. Signed-off-by: K. Y.

* net/hyperv: Add flow control based on hi/low watermarkHaiyang Zhang2012-04-031-31/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the existing code, we only stop queue when the ringbuffer is full, so the current packet has to be dropped or retried from upper layer. This patch stops the tx queue when available ringbuffer is below the low watermark. So the ringbuffer still has small amount of space available for the current packet.
