SCIF ring buffer is a single producer, single consumer byte stream ring buffer optimized for avoiding reads across the PCIe bus while adding the required barriers and hardware workarounds for the MIC Coprocessor. The ring buffer is used to implement a receive queue for SCIF driver messaging between two nodes and for byte stream messaging between SCIF endpoints. The existing in-kernel ring buffer was not reused since it has not been designed for our use across the PCIe bus where each node runs an independent OS. Each SCIF node has a receive queue for every other SCIF node, and each connected endpoint has a receive queue for messages from its peer. This pair of receive queues is referred to as a SCIF queue pair.
