VF will build two queues (csq: command send queue, crq: command receive
queue) with firmware, the crq may contain the following messages:
1) mailbox response message which was the ack of mailbox sync request.
2) PF's link status change message which may send by PF at anytime;
Currently, any threads in the primary and secondary processes could
send mailbox sync request, so it will need to process the crq messages
in there own thread context.
If the crq hold two messages: a) PF's link status change message, b)
mailbox response message when secondary process deals with the crq
messages, it will lead to report lsc event in secondary process
because it uses the policy of processing all pending messages at once.
We use the following scheme to solve it:
1) threads in secondary process could only process specifics messages
(eg. mailbox response message) in crq, if the message processed, its
opcode will rewrite with zero, then the intr thread in primary
process will not process again.
2) threads other than intr thread in the primary process use the same
processing logic as the threads in secondary process.
3) intr thread in the primary process could process all messages.
