Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/ixgbe: fix blocking system events
Date: Thu, 2 Jan 2020 09:58:01 +0000	[thread overview]

Hi Konstantin,

Thank you for your advice. Your advice is excellent. I have the same idea with you to solve this problem.
First.  Consider whether the fallback function of alamer can shorten the time. 
But it seems difficult for the following reasons(If you have a good idea, please let me know):
	a. The entry of the fallback function is 'ixgbe_setup_mac_link_multispeed_fiber', It's a little more complicated
	b. This callback function not only has multiple sleeps, but also may have long sleep in other functions it calls
	c. The function called by the callback function has different implementations for different NIC
	d. This callback function and other functions it calls are all from ND's shared code. After modification, upgrading will cause trouble

So I use a separate thread to replace alarm, This thread is created using wrapper function: rte_ctrl_thread_create().
A mechanism is provided to create a thread when PF or VF is initialized for the first time. This thread will select tasks from the task list in order to execute. If the task list is empty, the thread sleeps. 
Provides interface for adding and deleting tasks.
The specific implementation is as follows(See patch for detailed implementation):
	a. Thread create function: ixgbe_task_thread_init, it will call rte_ctrl_thread_create to create thread
	b. Thread destroy function: ixgbe_task_thread_uninit
	c. Add task function: ixgbe_add_task, it add a task and wake up the sleeping thread
	d. Cancel task function: ixgbe_cancel_task, it cancel a task synchronously

The reason why a task queue is used to manage tasks is that there may be concurrent conflicts, because alarm has no concurrent conflicts.

BR,
Zhu, Tao
