idpf: replace flow scheduling buffer ring with buffer pool
Replace the TxQ buffer ring with one large pool/array of buffers (only for flow scheduling). This eliminates the tag generation and makes it impossible for a tag to be associated with more than one packet. The completion tag passed to HW through the descriptor is the index into the array. That same completion tag is posted back to the driver in the completion descriptor, and used to index into the array to quickly retrieve the buffer during cleaning. In this way, the tags are treated as a fix sized resource. If all tags are in use, no more packets can be sent on that particular queue (until some are freed up). The tag pool size is 64K since the completion tag width is 16 bits. For each packet, the driver pulls a free tag from the refillq to get the next free buffer index. When cleaning is complete, the tag is posted back to the refillq. A multi-frag packet spans multiple buffers in the driver, therefore it uses multiple buffer indexes/tags from the pool. Each frag pulls from the refillq to get the next free buffer index. These are tracked in a next_buf field that replaces the completion tag field in the buffer struct. This chains the buffers together so that the packet can be cleaned from the starting completion tag taken from the completion descriptor, then from the next_buf field for each subsequent buffer. In case of a dma_mapping_error occurs or the refillq runs out of free buf_ids, the packet will execute the rollback error path. This unmaps any buffers previously mapped for the packet. Since several free buf_ids could have already been pulled from the refillq, we need to restore its original state as well. Otherwise, the buf_ids/tags will be leaked and not used again until the queue is reallocated. Descriptor completions only advance the descriptor ring index to "clean" the descriptors. The packet completions only clean the buffers associated with the given packet completion tag and do not update the descriptor ring index. When operating in queue based scheduling mode, the array still acts as a ring and will only have TxQ descriptor count entries. The tx_bufs are still associated 1:1 with the descriptor ring entries and we can use the conventional indexing mechanisms.
