Subject: [PATCH v4 07/10] net/mlx5: remove redundant MAC address index checks
Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2026 18:02:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260709160247.1798575-8-david.marchand@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260709160247.1798575-1-david.marchand@redhat.com>
On the net/mlx5 side, the OS specific helpers do not need to implement
again checks on the MAC index, the cde from mlx5_mac.c already does this.
Cascading this consideration, validating the MAC index against
MLX5_MAX_MAC_ADDRESSES in common code is also redundant.
The common code only deals with netlink, remove any index concern.
Signed-off-by: David Marchand <david.marchand@redhat.com>
