gve: DQO: Add TX path
TX SKBs will have their buffers DMA mapped with the device. Each buffer will have at least one TX descriptor associated. Each SKB will also have a metadata descriptor. Each TX queue maintains an array of `gve_tx_pending_packet_dqo` objects. Every TX SKB will have an associated pending_packet object. A TX SKB's descriptors will use its pending_packet's index as the completion tag, which will be returned on the TX completion queue. The device implements a "flow-miss model". Most packets will simply receive a packet completion. The flow-miss system may choose to process a packet based on its contents. A TX packet which experiences a flow miss would receive a miss completion followed by a later reinjection completion. The miss-completion is received when the packet starts to be processed by the flow-miss system and the reinjection completion is received when the flow-miss system completes processing the packet and sends it on the wire. Notable mentions: - Buffers may be freed after receiving the miss-completion, but in order to avoid packet reordering, we do not complete the SKB until receiving the reinjection completion. - The driver must robustly handle the unlikely scenario where a miss completion does not have an associated reinjection completion. This is accomplished by maintaining a list of packets which have a pending reinjection completion. After a short timeout (5 seconds), the SKB and buffers are released and the pending_packet is moved to a second list which has a longer timeout (60 seconds), where the pending_packet will not be reused. When the longer timeout elapses, the driver may assume the reinjection completion would never be received and the pending_packet may be reused. - Completion handling is triggered by an interrupt and is done in the NAPI poll function. Because the TX path and completion exist in different threading contexts they maintain their own lists for free pending_packet objects. The TX path uses a lock-free approach to steal the list from the completion path. - Both the TSO context and general context descriptors have metadata bytes. The device requires that if multiple descriptors contain the same field, each descriptor must have the same value set for that field.
