Linux kernel source tree

Drivers call netdev_tx_completed_queue() right before netif_txq_maybe_wake(). If BQL is enabled netdev_tx_completed_queue() should issue a memory barrier, so we can depend on that separating the stop check from the consumer index update, instead of adding another barrier in netif_txq_maybe_wake(). This matters more than the barriers on the xmit path, because the wake condition is almost always true. So we issue the consumer side barrier often. Wrap netdev_tx_completed_queue() in a local helper to issue the barrier even if BQL is disabled. Keep the same semantics as netdev_tx_completed_queue() (barrier only if bytes != 0) to make it clear that the barrier is conditional. Plus since macro gets pkt/byte counts as arguments now - we can skip waking if there were no packets completed. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
