David Howells 9e3cccd176 rxrpc: Fix CPU time starvation in I/O thread
Starvation can happen in the rxrpc I/O thread because it goes back to the
top of the I/O loop after it does any one thing without trying to give any
other connection or call CPU time.  Also, because it processes one call
packet at a time, it tries to do the retransmission loop after each ACK
without checking to see if there are other ACKs already in the queue that
can update the SACK state.

Fix this by:

 (1) Add a received-packet queue on each call.

 (2) Distribute packets from the master Rx queue to the individual call,
     conn and error queues and 'poking' calls to add them to the attend
     queue first thing in the I/O thread.

 (3) Go through all the attention-seeking connections and calls before
     going back to the top of the I/O thread.  Each queue is extracted as a
     whole and then gone through so that new additions to insert themselves
     into the queue.

 (4) Make the call event handler go through all the packets currently on
     the call's rx_queue before transmitting and retransmitting DATA
     packets.

 (5) Drop the skb argument from the call event handler as this is now
     replaced with the rx_queue.  Instead, keep track of whether we
     received a packet or an ACK for the tests that used to rely on that.

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 reStructuredText 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.
