Jesper et al., please give this a good once over.
The issue with merging this, is that I recently discovered two bug with
page_pool API, when using DMA-mappings, which result in missing
DMA-unmap's. These bugs are not "exposed" yet, but will get exposed
now with this drivers.
The two bugs are:
#1: in-flight packet-pages can still be on remote drivers TX queue,
while XDP RX driver manage to unregister the page_pool (waiting 1 RCU
period is not enough).
#2: this patchset also introduce page_pool_unmap_page(), which is
called before an XDP frame travel into networks stack (as no callback
exist, yet). But the CPUMAP redirect *also* needs to call this, else we
"leak"/miss DMA-unmap.
I do have a working prototype, that fixes these two bugs. I guess, I'm
under pressure to send this to the list soon...
In particular "cpsw" case no dma unmap issue and if no changes in page_pool
API then no changes to the driver required. page_pool_unmap_page() is
used here for consistency reasons with attention that it can be
inherited/reused by other SoCs for what it can be relevant.
One potential change as you mentioned is with dropping page_pool_destroy() that,
now, can look like:
@@ -571,7 +571,6 @@ static void cpsw_destroy_rx_pool(struct cpsw_priv *priv, int ch)
return;
xdp_rxq_info_unreg(&priv->xdp_rxq[ch]);
- page_pool_destroy(priv->page_pool[ch]);
priv->page_pool[ch] = NULL;
}
From what I know there is ongoing change for adding switchdev to cpsw that can
change a lot and can require more work to rebase / test this patchset, so I want
to believe it can be merged before this.
