svm_fifo rework to avoid contention on cursize
Problems Addressed:
- Contention of cursize by producer and consumer.
- Reduce the no of modulo operations.
Changes:
- Synchronization between producer and consumer changed from cursize
to head and tail indexes
Implications: reduces the usable size of fifo by 1.
- Using weaker memory ordering C++11 atomics to access head and tail
based on producer and consumer role.
- Head and tail indexes are unsigned 32 bit integers. Additions and
subtraction on them are implicit 32 bit Modulo operation.
- Adding weaker memory ordering variants of max_enq, max_deq, is_empty
and is_full Using them appropriately in all places.
Perfomance improvement (iperf3 via Hoststack):
iperf3 Server: Marvell ThunderX2(AArch64) - iperf3 Client: Skylake(x86)
~6%(256 rxd/txd) - ~11%(2048 rxd/txd)
