Kamenee Arumugam f592ae3c99 IB/rdmavt: Fracture single lock used for posting and processing RWQEs
Usage of single lock prevents fetching posted and processing receive work
queue entries from progressing simultaneously and impacts overall
performance.

Fracture the single lock used for posting and processing Receive Work
Queue Entries (RWQEs) to allow the circular buffer to be filled and
emptied at the same time. Two new spinlocks - one for the producers and
one for the consumers used for posting and processing RWQEs simultaneously
and the two indices are define on two different cache lines. The threshold
count is used to avoid reading other index in different cache line every
time.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
