Jakub Kicinski 301f227fc8 net: piggy back on the memory barrier in bql when waking queues
Drivers call netdev_tx_completed_queue() right before
netif_txq_maybe_wake(). If BQL is enabled netdev_tx_completed_queue()
should issue a memory barrier, so we can depend on that separating
the stop check from the consumer index update, instead of adding
another barrier in netif_txq_maybe_wake().

This matters more than the barriers on the xmit path, because
the wake condition is almost always true. So we issue the
consumer side barrier often.

Wrap netdev_tx_completed_queue() in a local helper to issue
the barrier even if BQL is disabled. Keep the same semantics
as netdev_tx_completed_queue() (barrier only if bytes != 0)
to make it clear that the barrier is conditional.

Plus since macro gets pkt/byte counts as arguments now -
we can skip waking if there were no packets completed.

/**
* DOC: Lockless queue stopping / waking helpers.
*
* The netif_txq_maybe_stop() and __netif_txq_completed_wake()
* macros are designed to safely implement stopping
* and waking netdev queues without full lock protection.
*
* We assume that there can be no concurrent stop attempts and no concurrent
* wake attempts. The try-stop should happen from the xmit handler,
* while wake up should be triggered from NAPI poll context.
* The two may run concurrently (single producer, single consumer).
*
* The try-stop side is expected to run from the xmit handler and therefore
* it does not reschedule Tx (netif_tx_start_queue() instead of
* netif_tx_wake_queue()). Uses of the ``stop`` macros outside of the xmit
* handler may lead to xmit queue being enabled but not run.
* The waking side does not have similar context restrictions.
*
* The macros guarantee that rings will not remain stopped if there's
* space available, but they do *not* prevent false wake ups when
* the ring is full! Drivers should check for ring full at the start
* for the xmit handler.
*
* All descriptor ring indexes (and other relevant shared state) must
* be updated before invoking the macros.
