Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/2] net/smc: transition to RDMA core CQ pooling
Date: Fri, 8 May 2026 14:37:16 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260508063718.101622-1-alibuda@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)
This series transitions SMC-R completion handling to RDMA core CQ pooling
via the ib_cqe API. The new completion model improves scalability by
allowing per-link completion processing across multiple cores and enables
DIM-based interrupt moderation.
As a side effect, the increased concurrency can amplify contention for TX
slots on the shared wait queue. Patch 2 addresses this by switching TX slot
allocation from non-exclusive wait_event() to prepare_to_wait_exclusive(),
which avoids thundering-herd wakeups under contention.
Patch 1 replaces the global per-device CQ and manual tasklet polling model
with RDMA core CQ pooling.
Patch 2 reduces TX slot contention by using exclusive wait queue entries
during allocation.
