We use ioat ring space for determining if ioat callbacks can enqueue a
packet to ioat device. But there is one slot can't be used in ioat
ring due to the ioat driver design, so we need to reduce one slot in
ioat ring to prevent ring size mismatch in ioat callbacks.

That really comforts me in thinking we need a generic abstraction for
DMA devices. How is the application developer supposed to know that
the DMA driver has such weird limitations?

Can the driver be fixed to have a proper behavior?

Here is the patch of providing capacity check API for DMA:

Having a generic DMA API may be interesting.
Do you know any other HW candidate for such an API?
Do you think rte_memcpy can be used as a SW driver?

+Cc more people to start a discussion about a potential DMA API.
If you think it is interesting, we can start a fresh discussion thread.

Yes, I guess we could create a vdev driver with MEM_TO_MEM capability
using rte_memcpy().

Note that IOAT in the Kernel is supported by the DMA framework.

OK, thanks for the pointer.

While this new API is being reviewed, and for LTS, let's pick your
patch. As soon as Bruce patch is merged, please send a new patch on top
to make use of this API.
