Currently, OpenCrypto consumers can request asynchronous dispatch by
setting a flag in the cryptop. (Currently only IPSec may do this.) I
think this is a bit confusing: we (conditionally) set cryptop flags to
request async dispatch, and then crypto_dispatch() immediately examines
those flags to see if the consumer wants async dispatch. The flag names
are also confusing since they don't specify what "async" applies to:
dispatch or completion.
Add a new KPI, crypto_dispatch_async(), rather than encoding the
requested dispatch type in each cryptop. crypto_dispatch_async() falls
back to crypto_dispatch() if the session's driver provides asynchronous
dispatch. Get rid of CRYPTOP_ASYNC() and CRYPTOP_ASYNC_KEEPORDER().
Similarly, add crypto_dispatch_batch() to request processing of a tailq
of cryptops, rather than encoding the scheduling policy using cryptop
flags. Convert GELI, the only user of this interface (disabled by
default) to use the new interface.
Add CRYPTO_SESS_SYNC(), which can be used by consumers to determine
whether crypto requests will be dispatched synchronously. This is just
a helper macro. Use it instead of looking at cap flags directly.
Fix style in crypto_done(). Also get rid of CRYPTO_RETW_EMPTY() and
just check the relevant queues directly. This could result in some
unnecessary wakeups but I think it's very uncommon to be using more than
one queue per worker in a given workload, so checking all three queues
is a waste of cycles.
