The ENA data path design has separate submission and completion queues. Submission queues must be refilled in strict order (since there is only a single linear tail pointer used to communicate the existence of new entries to the hardware), and completion queue entries include a request identifier copied verbatim from the submission queue entry. Once the submission queue doorbell has been rung, software never again reads from the submission queue entry and nothing ever needs to write back to the submission queue entry since completions are reported via the separate completion queue. This design allows the hardware to complete submission queue entries out of order, provided that it internally caches at least as many entries as it leaves gaps. Record and identify I/O buffers by request identifier (using a circular ring buffer of unique request identifiers), and remove the assumption that submission queue entries will be completed in order.
