K. Y. Srinivasan fe760e4d64 Drivers: hv: vmbus: Give control over how the ring access is serialized
On the channel send side, many of the VMBUS
device drivers explicity serialize access to the
outgoing ring buffer. Give more control to the
VMBUS device drivers in terms how to serialize
accesss to the outgoing ring buffer.
The default behavior will be to aquire the
ring lock to preserve the current behavior.

K. Y. Srinivasan 3eba9a77d5 Drivers: hv: vmbus: Eliminate the spin lock on the read path
The function hv_ringbuffer_read() is called always on a pre-assigned
CPU. Each chnnel is bound to a specific CPU and this function is
always called on the CPU the channel is bound. There is no need to
acquire the spin lock; get rid of this overhead.

Vitaly Kuznetsov 940b68e2c3 Drivers: hv: ring_buffer: eliminate hv_ringbuffer_peek()
Currently, there is only one user for hv_ringbuffer_read()/
hv_ringbuffer_peak() functions and the usage of these functions is:
- insecure as we drop ring_lock between them, someone else (in theory
  only) can acquire it in between;
- non-optimal as we do a number of things (acquire/release the above
  mentioned lock, calculate available space on the ring, ...) twice and
  this path is performance-critical.

Remove hv_ringbuffer_peek() moving the logic from __vmbus_recvpacket() to
hv_ringbuffer_read().

Vitaly Kuznetsov b5f53dde8d Drivers: hv: ring_buffer: remove code duplication from hv_ringbuffer_peek/read()
hv_ringbuffer_peek() does the same as hv_ringbuffer_read() without
advancing the read index. The only functional change this patch brings
is moving hv_need_to_signal_on_read() call under the ring_lock but this
function is just a couple of comparisons.

Christopher Oo a5cca686ce Drivers: hv_vmbus: Fix signal to host condition
Fixes a bug where previously hv_ringbuffer_read would pass in the old
number of bytes available to read instead of the expected old read index
when calculating when to signal to the host that the ringbuffer is empty.
Since the previous write size is already saved, also changes the
hv_need_to_signal_on_read to use the previously read value rather than
recalculating it.

K. Y. Srinivasan 046c7911b2 Drivers: hv: vmbus: Enable interrupt driven flow control
In win8 we have a feature that allows for interrupt driven flow management
for host/guest communication. For instance, if the host were blocked because
there was no space available in the ringbuffer, the host could request that the
guest send an interrupt when space becomes available in the ringbuffer (when
the guest drains the ringbuffer).

While this feature was implemented in the guest a while ago, we had not
advertised that the guest supported this feature. This patch advertises
the support to the host.

For pre-win8 hosts, this has no effect since the size of the ringbuffer
control structure has not changed and all changes have been backward
compatible - unused/reserved space has been used to implement this
feature.

In this version of the patch I have cleaned up the commit log based on
feedback from Greg KH.

K. Y. Srinivasan 011a7c3cc3 Drivers: hv: vmbus: Cleanup the packet send path
The current channel code is using scatterlist abstraction to pass data to the
ringbuffer API on the send path. This causes unnecessary translations
between virtual and physical addresses. Fix this.

This patches add a read barriers to force the driver to check the interrupt mask
before read_index. Otherwise we may lost a kick to host.

Implement functions that will support read-side signaling optimization.
By having the reader indicate the start of the "read" operation and the
"end" of the read operation we can more efficiently handle the signaling
protocol: while the read is in progress, there is no need for the "writer"
to signal the "reader" as new items are put on the read queue.

Haiyang Zhang 33be96e47c net/hyperv: Add flow control based on hi/low watermark
In the existing code, we only stop queue when the ringbuffer is full,
so the current packet has to be dropped or retried from upper layer.

This patch stops the tx queue when available ringbuffer is below
the low watermark. So the ringbuffer still has small amount of space
available for the current packet. This will reduce the overhead of
retries on sending.
