rS357772: Use NET_TASK_INIT() and NET_GROUPTASK_INIT() for drivers that process
rS357771: Add flag to struct task to mark the task as requiring network epoch.

Summary

[this is second invocation of D23408]

Add optional epoch to struct task and struct gtask. When processing a taskqueue and a task has associated epoch, then enter for duration of the task. If consecutive tasks belong to the same epoch, batch them.

Use NET_TASK_INIT() and NET_GROUPTASK_INIT() for drivers that process incoming packets in taskqueue context.

Add a temporary compatibility hack to ease transition to new ABI for people who have port modules (e.g. nvidia.ko).

sys/sys/taskqueue.h
113	Should you add: .ta_epoch = NULL Even if that is implicit?

glebius added inline comments.Feb 10 2020, 7:02 PM

sys/sys/taskqueue.h
113	I'd rather remove .ta_pending = 0 assignment, instead. The whole idea behind the C99 sparse initializers was to make it possible to change structure definition without necessity to touch every initializer. Explicit zeroing of every field brings functionality down to the level of C90 initializers.

I'm good with this change.

sys/sys/taskqueue.h
113	I'm fine with that.

Convert pointer in struct task to a flag.

sys/sys/_task.h
65–66	I would redefine these to be identical type widths to task. It should be ABI compatible with just more wasted space if I am reading it correctly.

sys/sys/_task.h
54	In big endian machines this will be byte-swapped for binary compatibility (just a FYI) uint16_t ta_priority:8; uint16_t ta_flags:8; --HPS

sys/kern/subr_gtaskqueue.c
365	in_net_epoch needs update! It is currently only set once.
sys/kern/subr_taskqueue.c
469	Where are you updating in_net_epoch ?

Add flag to struct task to mark the task as requiring network epoch.
Use NET_TASK_INIT() and NET_GROUPTASK_INIT() for drivers that process
Revert "Temporarily force IFF_NEEDSEPOCH until drivers have been resolved."
