When vnet_start_xmit() is concurrent with vnet_ack(), we may
have a race that looks like:
thread 1 thread 2
vnet_start_xmit vnet_event_napi -> vnet_rx
__vnet_tx_trigger for some desc X
at this point dr->prod == X
peer sends back a stopped ack for X
we process X, but X == dr->prod
so we bail out in vnet_ack with
!idx_is_pending
update dr->prod
As a result of the fact that we never processed the stopped ack for X,
the Tx path is led to incorrectly believe that the peer is still
"started" and reading, but the peer has stopped reading, which will
ultimately end in flow-control assertions.
The fix is to synchronize the above 2 paths on the netif_tx_lock.

vnet_event_napi() may be called as part of the NAPI ->poll,
to resume reading descriptor rings. When no data is available,
descriptor ring state (e.g., rcv_nxt) needs to be reset
carefully to stay in lock-step with ldc_read(). In the interest
of simplicity, the best way to do this is to return from
vnet_event_napi() when there are no more packets to read.
The next trip through ldc_rx will correctly set up the dring state.

vio_dring_avail() will allow use of every dring entry, but when the last
entry is allocated then dr->prod == dr->cons which is indistinguishable from
the ring empty condition. This causes the next allocation to reuse an entry.
When this happens in sunvdc, the server side vds driver begins nack'ing the
messages and ends up resetting the ldc channel. This problem does not effect
sunvnet since it checks for < 2.
The fix here is to just never allocate the very last dring slot so that full
and empty are not the same condition. The request start path was changed to
check for the ring being full a bit earlier, and to stop the blk_queue if
there is no space left. The blk_queue will be restarted once the ring is
only half full again. The number of ring entries was increased to 512 which
matches the sunvnet and Solaris vdc drivers, and greatly reduces the
frequency of hitting the ring full condition and the associated blk_queue
stop/starting. The checks in sunvent were adjusted to account for
vio_dring_avail() returning 1 less.

When sending out a burst of packets across multiple descriptors,
it is sufficient to send one LDC "start" trigger for
the first descriptor, so do not send an LDC "start" for every
pass through vnet_start_xmit. Similarly, it is sufficient to send
one "DRING_STOPPED" trigger for the last dring (and if that
fails, hold off and send the trigger later).
Optimizations to the number of LDC messages helps avoid
filling up the LDC channel with superfluous LDC messages
that risk triggering flow-control on the channel,
and also boosts performance.

The sunvnet driver does not have an rmb() in the ring consumer corresponding
to the wmb() in the producer. According to Documentation/memory-barriers.txt:
"When dealing with CPU-CPU interactions, certain types of memory barrier should
always be paired. A lack of appropriate pairing is almost certainly an error."
In cases where an rmb() is not a no-op and a consumer is removing data from
the ring while a producer is adding new entries, a load reorder would allow
CPU1 CPU2
---- ----
LOAD desc.size [e.g]
STORE desc.size
<wmb>
set desc.hdr.state = VIO_DESC_READY
LOAD desc.hdr.state
[because VIO_DESC_READY, use
old desc.size, already loaded
out of order]
[CPU2 has reordered apparently unrelated LOADs]
To ensure other desc fields are not loaded before checking VIO_DESC_READY, we
need an rmb() between the check and desc data accesses.
I've also moved the viodbg() call to after the rmb() so that it, too, has
current descriptor data even with reordering, which has the side effect that
it won't print anything for descriptors that are not VIO_DESC_READY as before.
That's a) probably a good thing, since the fields are not necessarily set and,
b) better than adding another rmb() just for viodbg().
This would not be possible if strict-ordering is enforced, but then the
memory barriers should be no-ops in that case.
