Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/8] netlink: specs: devlink: complete the port function nest
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 13:03:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260910200312.2665792-5-kuba@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260910200312.2665792-1-kuba@kernel.org>
dl-port-function stops at caps, but the nest also carries
DEVLINK_PORT_FN_ATTR_DEVLINK (5) and DEVLINK_PORT_FN_ATTR_MAX_IO_EQS (6)
both put by devlink_nl_port_function_attrs_put() on every port-get
do and dump. YNL raises
Space 'dl-port-function' has no attribute with value '6'
for any port reporting max_io_eqs or a nested devlink handle,
i.e. for mlx5 SFs and VFs.
Commit 5af3e3876d56 ("devlink: Support setting max_io_eqs") added the
uAPI value and the hand written policy but never touched the spec.
Add the missing attributes, subsequent commit reworks the code
to use the YNL-generated policy.
