From Jake:
In r341156 ("Fix first-packet completion", 2018-11-28) a hack to work
around a delta calculation determining how many descriptors were used
was added to ixl_isc_tx_credits_update_dwb.
The same fix was also applied to the em and igb drivers in r340310, and
to ix in r341156.
The hack checked the case where prev and cur were equal, and then added
one. This works, because by the time we do the delta check, we already
know there is at least one packet available, so the delta should be at
least one.
However, it's not a complete fix, and as indicated by the comment is
really a hack to work around the real bug.
The real problem is that the first time that we transmit a packet,
tx_cidx_processed will be set to point to the start of the ring.
Ultimately, the credits_update function expects it to point to the
*last* descriptor that was processed. Since we haven't yet processed any
descriptors, pointing it to 0 results in this incorrect calculation.
Fix the initialization code to have it point to the end of the ring
instead. One way to think about this, is that we are setting the value
to be one prior to the first available descriptor.
Doing so, corrects the delta calculation in all cases. The original fix
only works if the first packet has exactly one descriptor. Otherwise, we
will report 1 less than the correct value.
As part of this fix, also update the MPASS assertions to match the real
expectations. First, ensure that prev is not equal to cur, since this
should never happen. Second, remove the assertion about prev==0 || delta
!= 0. It looks like that originated from when the em driver was
converted to iflib. It seems like it was supposed to ensure that delta
was non-zero. However, because we originally returned 0 delta for the
first calculation, the "prev == 0" was tacked on.
Instead, replace this with a check that delta is greater than zero,
after the correction necessary when the ring pointers wrap around.
This new solution should fix the same bug as r341156 did, but in a more
robust way.

FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
