IB/qib: Optimize pio ack buffer allocation
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This patch optimizes pio buffer allocation in the kernel.

For qib, kernel pio buffers are used for sending acks.  The code to
allocate the buffer would always start at 0 until it found a buffer.

This means that an average of 64 comparisions were done on each
allocate, since the busy bit won't be cleared until the bits are
refreshed when buffers are exhausted.

This patch adds two new fields in the devdata struct, last_pio and
min_kernel_pio.  last_pio is the last buffer that was allocated.
min_kernel_pio is the lowest potential available buffer.

min_kernel_pio is modifed as contexts are allocated and deallocted.
