From: Joshua Hay <joshua.a.hay@intel.com>

Tell hardware to writeback completed descriptors even when interrupts
are disabled. Otherwise, descriptors might not be written back until
the hardware can flush a full cacheline of descriptors. This can cause
unnecessary delays when traffic is light (or even trigger Tx queue
timeout).

Fixes: c2d548cad150 ("idpf: add TX splitq napi poll support")
Fixes: a5ab9ee0df0b ("idpf: add singleq start_xmit and napi poll")

Dear Michal, dear Joshua,


Thank you for your patch.

Should you resend, the verb is spelled with a space: write back.

How can the problem be reproduced and the patch be verified?


Kind regards,

Dear Michal, dear Joshua,


Thank you for your patch.

How can the problem be reproduced and the patch be verified?


Kind regards,

Hi Paul,

To be honest, I have noticed the problem during the implementation of
AF_XDP feature for IDPF driver. In my scenario, I had 2 Tx queues:
 - regular LAN Tx queue
 - and XDP Tx queue
added to the same q_vector attached to the same NAPI, so those 2 Tx
queues were handled in the same NAPI poll loop.
Then, when I started a huge Tx zero-copy trafic using AF_XDP (on the XDP
queue), and, at the same time, tried to xmit a few packets using the second
(non-XDP) queue (e.g. with scapy), I was getting the Tx timeout on that regular
LAN Tx queue.
That is why I decided to upstream this fix. With disabled writebacks,
there is no chance to get the completion descriptor for the queue where
the traffic is much lighter.

I have never tried to reproduce the scenario described by Joshua
in his original patch ("unnecessary delays when traffic is light").

Thanks,
Michal

Hi Tony,

Could you please add a space ("writeback" -> "write back") when taking the patch
to your tree?

Actually, looks like you missed updating kdocs

Not sure if this was considered, but it might be best to put this before 
intr_reg so it's on the same cacheline as intr_reg.

Good point! It wasn't considered before.
I have just confirmed with pahole that it is worth putting that flag
before the register structure in terms of cacheline.

Thank you for your suggestion. I will reorder this.
