[PATCH V2] accel/amdxdna: eliminate GFP_KERNEL allocation from mailbox send path

From: Max Zhen

Date: Fri Oct 02 2026 - 12:11:40 EST


Replace the per-message kzalloc() with a pre-allocated pool of N slots.
Each slot is rb_size bytes which is the combined size of the mailbox_msg
metadata and the package payload must not exceed rb_size. No dynamic
allocation is needed in the send hot path.

msg_id encodes the slot index as (slot | MAGIC_VAL), allowing O(1)
lookup on response. A bool busy field tracks slot occupancy; it is set
after the memset() that initialises the slot so the flag is not zeroed
out, and cleared in mailbox_msg_done() before invoking the callback so
the slot is available for reuse by the time the callback returns.

mailbox_msg_done() is introduced as a helper that saves the callback
pointer, clears busy via smp_store_release(), then invokes the callback.
The release barrier ensures the loads of notify_cb and handle complete
before busy is cleared. Without it, a concurrent sender could overwrite
those fields after observing busy == false. mailbox_acquire_msgid() uses
smp_load_acquire() on busy to pair with the release store. Callers hold
a per-channel mutex, so only one sender runs at a time and no atomic
slot claim is needed.

NULL notify_cb is handled inside mailbox_msg_done() so fire-and-forget
sends (e.g. aie2_config_cu with no callback) are correctly tracked as
in-flight until the response arrives.

The management channel slot count and async event pool size both use a
static AMDXDNA_MAX_ASYNC_EVENT_BUFS of 4. The channel must be
initialised before total_col is known from firmware, so the value
cannot be derived from ndev. Both counts must stay equal. The channel
is sized AMDXDNA_MAX_ASYNC_EVENT_BUFS + 1 (one extra for other
management commands), so the pool cannot exceed that.

V2:
Removed tx timeout check entirely for simplicity. When sending
command, only wait if no enough space in ring buffer.
