    sfc: Allocate and link PIO buffers; map them with write-combining · 183233be
    Ben Hutchings 提交于
    Try to allocate a segment of PIO buffer to each TX channel.  If
    allocation fails, log an error but continue.
    
    PIO buffers must be mapped separately from the NIC registers, with
    write-combining enabled.  Where the host page size is 4K, we could
    potentially map each VI's registers and PIO buffer separately.
    However, this would add significant complexity, and we also need to
    support architectures such as POWER which have a greater page size.
    So make a single contiguous write-combining mapping after the
    uncacheable mapping, aligned to the host page size, and link PIO
    buffers there.  Where necessary, allocate additional VIs within
    the write-combining mapping purely for access to PIO buffers.
    
    Link all TX buffers to TX queues and the additional VIs in
    efx_ef10_dimension_resources() and in efx_ef10_init_nic() after
    an MC reboot.
