Subject: [PATCH net-next v12 4/4] net: mana: recover port on attach failure in ethtool operations
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2026 21:10:24 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260711041415.3008868-5-dipayanroy@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260711041415.3008868-1-dipayanroy@linux.microsoft.com>

When mana_attach() fails during ethtool ring size or channel count
changes, the port is left in a broken state with no recovery
mechanism, requiring manual intervention to bring the port back up.

On VM SKUs without a netvsc fallback interface, this results in
complete loss of network connectivity to the VM.

Fix by scheduling queue_reset_work when mana_attach() fails. The
preceding patch ensures mana_detach() always completes its full
teardown (netif_device_detach + cleanup), so the reset handler's
mana_detach() takes the "already detached" early return, preserving
port_st_save for a successful mana_attach() recovery.

When mana_attach() fails, choose retry values that maximize recovery
chances: if the operation was an increase, fall back to the previous
working values; if it was a decrease but still above default, fall
back to defaults; otherwise use the minimum supported values.
