Subject: [ 21/23] virtio: support unlocked queue poll
Date: Fri,  2 Aug 2013 18:23:34 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130802102039.179726643@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130802102036.180660415@linuxfoundation.org>

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

commit cc229884d3f77ec3b1240e467e0236c3e0647c0c upstream.

This adds a way to check ring empty state after enable_cb outside any
locks. Will be used by virtio_net.

Note: there's room for more optimization: caller is likely to have a
memory barrier already, which means we might be able to get rid of a
barrier here.  Deferring this optimization until we do some
benchmarking.
