Description

MFC r343346

netmap: improvements to the netmap kloop (CSB mode)

Changelist:

  • Add the proper memory barriers in the kloop ring processing functions.
  • Fix memory barriers usage in the user helpers (nm_sync_kloop_appl_write, nm_sync_kloop_appl_read).
  • Fix nm_kr_txempty() helper to look at rhead rather than rcur. This is important since the kloop can read a value of rcur which is ahead of the value of rhead (see explanation in nm_sync_kloop_appl_write)
  • Remove obsolete ptnetmap_guest_write_kring_csb() and ptnet_guest_read_kring_csb(), and update if_ptnet(4) to use those.
  • Prepare in advance the arguments for netmap_sync_kloop_[tr]x_ring(), to make the kloop faster.
  • Provide kernel and user implementation for nm_ldld_barrier() and nm_ldst_barrier()
