2016-07-01ptr_ring: support resizing multiple queuesMichael S. Tsirkin
Sometimes, we need support resizing multiple queues at once. This is because it was not easy to recover to recover from a partial failure of multiple queues resizing. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2016-07-01ptr_ring: support zero length ringJason Wang
Sometimes, we need zero length ring. But current code will crash since we don't do any check before accessing the ring. This patch fixes this. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-06-15ptr_ring: resize supportMichael S. Tsirkin
This adds ring resize support. Seems to be necessary as users such as tun allow userspace control over queue size. If resize is used, this costs us ability to peek at queue without consumer lock - should not be a big deal as peek and consumer are usually run on the same CPU. If ring is made bigger, ring contents is preserved. If ring is made smaller, extra pointers are passed to an optional destructor callback. Cleanup function also gains destructor callback such that all pointers in queue can be cleaned up. This changes some APIs but we don't have any users yet, so it won't break bisect.

2016-06-15ptr_ring: array based FIFO for pointersMichael S. Tsirkin
A simple array based FIFO of pointers. Intended for net stack which commonly has a single consumer/producer. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
