Hello David,
I faced the problem described in commit 7e3f5c8:
ixgbe: fix bounds checking in ixgbe_setup_tc for 82598
This patch resolves an issue where users were not able to dynamically
set number of queues for 82598 via ethtool -L
I backported it for my v4.1.x build but I was wondering if this could be
a candidate for a backport in stable tree at least for v4.1.x.
Thanks,

Since we are now in a bug fix period, I was wondering if you could have
a look at commit 7e3f5c8 (ixgbe: fix bounds checking in ixgbe_setup_tc
for 82598)
I don't see it in
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/davem/stable/?state=*
so I was wondering if it could be a valid candidate for stable.
Best regards,

The Intel ethernet folks handle their driver -stable submissions.
