These are just flags for the state machine.

Because I did not know there were pcim_* calls.  But also because that comment
is wrong.   :-(   That was left over from a previous version.

With this version we had agreed to not use device managed calls in this layer
and depend on callers to do that if they wanted.

Since I'm spinning another version I think pcim_create_doe_mb() and dropping
pci_doe_destroy_mb() from the API is a good idea.

I think this is going to get reworked with the new dedicated workqueue.  So I'm
not going to address it directly.

As I explained before this is protecting the entrance to the state machine from
potentially multiple writer threads.  See pci_doe_submit_task() for details...

However, again I think this is going to change with the new workqueue.  So I'm
not going to try and address this directly.

Yep.  Sorry about not following the advise you gave to Jonathan before.  I
should have checked with you.

Because this object doubles as the work item.

Ok I've looked back and I think there was a lot of confusion here regarding the
use of a workqueue and the number of outstanding work items.

Very early on Jonathan had a queue of tasks.  IIRC you suggested to get rid of
that complexity and just process a single task at a time because we never
expected the queue depth to be very deep (probably only 1 work item at a time
anyway).

I think that is how things got where they were.

After reading through this email I think you are correct.  So I'm not going to
address any of this logic here because I think it will change quite a bit.

Ok again this comment is slightly out of date.  This call is no longer part of
the 'user' API with the exception of destroying the mailbox whilst the state
machine is running.

I'll delete this comment.

Yes

Effectively yes.  schedule_delayed_work() kicks the single work item which can
be in the state machine.

> do_doe_abort(...) <== do the abort

The state machine does this depending on where it is.

This depends on where the item was in the state machine.  It may have already
gotten a response in which case it would be complete or the submit task call
will start returning errors.

Again this path was only called when the mailbox was being destroyed so
resubmission was not possible anyway.

Yes moot.

No not here.  While this call is internal it is actually acting like an
external caller.  This specific wait is for that response to get back.

This pattern was specifically asked for by you.  Previously Jonathan had a
synchronous call which took care of this but you said let all callers just
handle it themselves.  So all callers submit a task and if they want to wait
for the response they have to do so themselves.

yea...  Sorry.

Only that we had agreed to create it unmanaged before because of some auxiliary
bus oddities which made it easier to use an unmanaged API.  Now that that is
gone I'm changing it to pcim_*.

Probably not.  I don't even think we need a loop if I understand xarray
correctly.  If the vid/type tuple is the long index then looking up that in the
xarray would return NULL or the value.  But I'm not super familiar with xarray
yet.  So I reserve the right to use xa_for_each().  :-D

Agreed.  and this is all changing.

However, there was no guarantee about submission order in the API nor am I
going to add any.  If a users needs some order they should ensure they are
submitting from a single thread or other synchronization mechanisms in the
callers.

All their submit tasks would return -ERESTARTSYS.  If a task was in the
state machine it will return it's completion.
