All buffers and ring info should be written before tail register update.
This patch relocates the write memory barrier before updating tail register
to avoid potential issues.

Fixes: 11b5c7daf019 ("raw/ntb: add enqueue and dequeue functions")

I am ok with the re-location of the barrier, but why not the rte_io_wmb instead of rte_wmb? 
Rte_io_wmb is sufficient to guarantee the preceding stores are visible to the device, rte_wmb is overkill.

As both txq->tx_used_ring and *txq->used_cnt are physically reside in the PCI device side, rte_io_wmb is correct to ensure the ordering.

Hi
I reconsidered and retested about this issue.
I still need to use rte_wmb instead of using rte_io_wmb.

Because to achieve high performance, ntb needs to turn on WC(write combining) feature. The perf difference with and without WC enabled is more than 20X.
And when WC enabled, rte_io_wmb cannot make sure the instructions are in order only rte_wmb can make sure that.

And in my retest, when sending 64 bytes packets, using rte_io_wmb will cause out-of-order issue and cause memory corruption on rx side.
And using rte_wmb is fine.

So I can only use v1 patch and suspend v2 patch in patchwork.

Best Regards
Xiaoyun Li

That's true, as it is declared as 'write combine' region, even x86 is known as strong ordered, it is the interconnect or PCI RC may do the reordering, 'write combine', 'write coalescing', which caused this problem.
IMO, rte_io_*mb barriers on x86 should be promoted to stronger is WC is involved(but that will sap performance for non-WC memories?). 
https://code.dpdk.org/dpdk/latest/source/lib/librte_eal/common/include/arch/x86/rte_atomic.h#L78 

Using rte_wmb will hurt performance for aarch64 also, as pci device memory accesses to a single device are strongly ordered therefore the strongest rte_wmb is not necessary.

Hi

Still, stability and correctness are much more important than performance.
As I said, with WC can benefit more than 20X perf. Comparing to this benefit, the difference between rte_wmb and rte_io_wmb is not that important.
And in my test, the performance is not that bad with rte_wmb especially with large packets which are the normal use cases.

BTW, I've searched linux kernel codes and don't see any NTB device on arm platform.
So I don't think you need to consider the perf hurt to arm.

Best Regards
Xiaoyun Li

I agree 'sfence' is the correct barrier for WC, as it is a weak memory model.
Rte_io on x86 is a compiler barrier, that is not strong enough.

Limited the discussion to NTB, I am fine, and since WC in not used for any other NICs, that's ok.
