This patch reworks and improves the zcrypt retry behavior:
- The zcrypt_rescan_req counter has been removed. This
counter variable has been increased on some transport
errors and was used as a gatekeeper for AP bus rescans.
- Rework of the zcrypt_process_rescan() function to not
use the above counter variable any more. Instead now
always the ap_bus_force_rescan() function is called
(as this has been improved with a previous patch).
- As the zcrpyt_process_rescan() function is called in
all cprb send functions in case of the first attempt
to send failed with ENODEV now before the next attempt
to send an cprb is started.
- Introduce a define ZCRYPT_WAIT_BINDINGS_COMPLETE_MS
for the amount of milliseconds to have the zcrypt API
wait for AP bindings complete. This amount has been
reduced to 30s (was 60s). Some playing around showed
that 30s is a really fair limit.
The result of the above together with the patches to
improve the AP scan bus functions is that after the
first loop of cprb send retries when the result is a
ENODEV the AP bus scan is always triggered (synchronous).
If the AP bus scan detects changes in the configuration,
all the send functions now retry when the first attempt
was failing with ENODEV in the hope that now a suitable
device has appeared.
About concurrency: The ap_bus_force_rescan() uses a mutex
to ensure only one active AP bus scan is running. Another
caller of this function is blocked as long as the scan is
running but does not cause yet another scan. Instead the
result of the 'other' scan is used. This affects only tasks
which run into an initial ENODEV. Tasks with successful
delivery of cprbs will never invoke the bus scan and thus
never get blocked by the mutex.
