[PATCH for-next v3 1/7] RDMA/rxe: Convert triple tasklets to use workqueue

Daisuke Matsuda
2022-12-23T06:53:50Z

In order to implement On-Demand Paging on the rxe driver, triple tasklets
(requester, responder, and completer) must be allowed to sleep so that they
can trigger page fault when pages being accessed are not present.

This patch replaces the tasklets with a workqueue, but still allows direct-
call of works from softirq context if it is obvious that MRs are not going
to be accessed and there is no work being processed in the workqueue.

As counterparts to tasklet_disable() and tasklet_enable() are missing for
workqueues, an atomic value is introduced to prevent work items from being
scheduled while qp reset is in progress.

The way to initialize/destroy workqueue is picked up from the
implementation of Ian Ziemba and Bob Pearson at HPE.
