Subject: [PATCH net V2 0/4] net/mlx5: SD LAG and devcom stability fixes
Date: Sun, 6 Sep 2026 10:13:28 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260906071332.3759199-1-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
Hi,
This series by Shay fixes four bugs in the Socket Direct LAG and devcom
subsystems, all related to initialization/teardown ordering and
concurrent access to the LAG device.
Regards,
Tariq

Does this open-coded retry loop reimplement a wait mechanism without
immediate
wakeups or fairness?
It looks like we are polling the mode_changes_in_progress flag using a
hard
coded msleep(100). Could this unnecessarily delay the initialization
path if
the condition clears much sooner than 100ms? Would it be better to use a
proper
synchronization primitive like a waitqueue here instead of an ad-hoc
flag loop?
[SD] This is the same check as in mlx5_lag_remove_mdev().
I agree we need to change it, but this is net-next material
V2:
- Fix git am apply error, and move pre-replies to cover letter.
