[PATCH iwl-next v2 0/6] idpf: XDP chapter II: convert Tx completion to libeth

From: Alexander Lobakin
Date: Wed Sep 04 2024 - 11:53:16 EST


XDP for idpf is currently 5 chapters:
* convert Rx to libeth;
* convert Tx completion to libeth (this);
* generic XDP and XSk code changes;
* actual XDP for idpf via libeth_xdp;
* XSk for idpf (^).

Part II does the following:
* adds generic libeth Tx completion routines;
* converts idpf to use generic libeth Tx comp routines;
* fixes Tx queue timeouts and robustifies Tx completion in general;
* fixes Tx event/descriptor flushes (writebacks).

Most idpf patches again remove more lines than adds.
Generic Tx completion helpers and structs are needed as libeth_xdp
(Ch. III) makes use of them. WB_ON_ITR is needed since XDPSQs don't
want to work without it at all. Tx queue timeouts fixes are needed
since without them, it's way easier to catch a Tx timeout event when
WB_ON_ITR is enabled.

Alexander Lobakin (3):
libeth: add Tx buffer completion helpers
idpf: convert to libeth Tx buffer completion
netdevice: add netdev_tx_reset_subqueue() shorthand

Joshua Hay (2):
idpf: refactor Tx completion routines
idpf: enable WB_ON_ITR

Michal Kubiak (1):
idpf: fix netdev Tx queue stop/wake

>From v1[0]:
* drop the stats implementation. It's not generic, uses old Ethtool
interfaces and is written using macro templates which made it barely
readable (Kuba).
I'll be rewriting it separately.
* replace `/* <multi-line comment>` with `/*\n * <multi-line comment>`
since the special rule for netdev was removed.
