[PATCH v5 5/7] r8169: Reduce spinlock contention for the start of RTL8117

From: Mirsad Goran Todorovac
Date: Sun Oct 29 2023 - 14:43:52 EST


Repeated calls to r8168_mac_ocp_write() and r8168_mac_ocp_modify()
in the startup of RTL8168ep involve implicit spin_lock_irqsave() and
spin_unlock_irqrestore() on each invocation.

This is avoided by grouping unlocked __r8168_mac_ocp_write() and
__r8168_mac_ocp_modify() primitives enclosed in the explicit
spin_lock_irqsave()/spin_unlock_irqrestore() pair.

Even if the lock is not contended, the check requires a LOCK CMPXCHG
or a similar instruction, which prevents all cores from accessing the
memory bus.

v5:
added unlocked primitives to allow mac ocs modify grouping
applied coalescing of mac ocp writes/modifies for 8168ep and 8117
some formatting fixes to please checkpatch.pl

v4:
fixed complaints as advised by Heiner and checkpatch.pl
split the patch into five sections to be more easily manipulated and reviewed
introduced r8168_mac_ocp_write_seq()
applied coalescing of mac ocp writes/modifies for 8168H, 8125 and 8125B

v3:
removed register/mask pair array sentinels, so using ARRAY_SIZE().
avoided duplication of RTL_W32() call code as advised by Heiner.
