Bear in mind, we're writing to memory (not io memory). In this case, we
want this write to be visible my the DMA device.
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/memory-barriers.txt gives a
similar example using dma_wmb() to flush updates to make them visible
by the hardware before notifying the hardware to come and inspect this
memory.

Sorry about being unclear. I just tried to give justification for why
dma_wmb seems more appropriate than wmb here. If you need to
order memory writes wrt writes to card, that is different, but generally
writeX and friends will handle the ordering for you, except when
using relaxed memory mappings - then wmb is generally necessary.

You mean why I did not put a memory barrier right after updating the
recieve doorbell record?
I thought about this and I think it is not required. Suppose it takes a
very long time till the hardware can actually see this update. The worst
effect would be that the hardware will drop received packets if it does
sees none available due to the delayed update. Eventually it will see
the update and will continue working.
If I put a memory barrier, I put some delay waiting for the CPU to flush
the write before continuing. I tried both options while checking packet
rate on couldn't see noticable difference in either case.

Michael, I left this gerrit ID by mistake. Can you remove it before
merging?

Make sure to put write memory barrier after updating CQ consumer index
so the hardware knows that there are available CQE slots in the queue.
Failure to do this can cause the update of the RX doorbell record to get
updated before the CQ consumer index resulting in CQ overrun.

[PATCH] vdpa/mlx5: Use write memory barrier after updating CQ index
Make sure to put write memory barrier after updating CQ consumer index
so the hardware knows that there are available CQE slots in the queue.
Failure to do this can cause the update of the RX doorbell record to get
updated before the CQ consumer index resulting in CQ overrun.
