[RFC PATCH net-next 5/5] net/smc: logic of cursors update in SMC-D loopback connections

From: Wen Gu
Date: Mon Dec 19 2022 - 12:08:59 EST


Since local sndbuf of SMC-D loopback connection shares the same
physical memory region with peer RMB, the logic of cursors update
needs to be adapted.

The main difference from original implementation is need to ensure
that the data copied to local sndbuf won't overwrite the unconsumed
data of peer.

So, for SMC-D loopback connections:

1. TX
a. don't update fin_curs when send out cdc msg.
b. fin_curs and sndbuf_space update will be deferred until
receiving peer cons_curs update.

2. RX
a. same as before. peer sndbuf is as large as local rmb,
which guarantees that prod_curs will behind prep_curs.
