Linux kernel source tree

If wait for ring space started just before migration, it can delay
the recovery process, by waiting without bailout path for up to 2
seconds.
Two second wait for recovery is not acceptable, and if the ring was
completely filled even without the migration temporarily stopping
execution, then such a wait will result in up to a thousand new jobs
(assuming constant flow) being added while the wait is happening.
While this will not cause data corruption, it will lead to warning
messages getting logged due to reset being scheduled on a GT under
recovery. Also several seconds of unresponsiveness, as the backlog
of jobs gets progressively executed.
Add a bailout condition, to make sure the recovery starts without
much delay. The recovery is expected to finish in about 100 ms when
under moderate stress, so the condition verification period needs to be
below that - settling at 64 ms.
The theoretical max time which the recovery can take depends on how
many requests can be emitted to engine rings and be pending execution.
While stress testing, it was possible to reach 10k pending requests
on rings when a platform with two GTs was used. This resulted in max
recovery time of 5 seconds. But in real life situations, it is very
unlikely that the amount of pending requests will ever exceed 100,
and for that the recovery time will be around 50 ms - well within our
claimed limit of 100ms.

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 reStructuredText 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.
