Subject: [net PATCH] octeontx2-pf: Fix ntuple rule creation to direct packet to VF with higher Rx queue than its PF
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2023 11:21:38 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231120055138.3602102-1-sumang@marvell.com> (raw)

It is possible to add a ntuple rule which would like to direct packet to
a VF whose number of queues are greater/less than its PF's queue numbers.
For example a PF can have 2 Rx queues but a VF created on that PF can have
8 Rx queues. As of today, ntuple rule will reject rule because it is
checking the requested queue number against PF's number of Rx queues.
As a part of this fix if the action of a ntuple rule is to move a packet
to a VF's queue then the check is removed. Also, a debug information is
printed to aware user that it is user's responsibility to cross check if
the requested queue number on that VF is a valid one.

Fixes: f0a1913f8a6f ("octeontx2-pf: Add support for ethtool ntuple filters")
