Subject: [PATCH net 2/2] net: enetc: do not allow VF to configure the RSS key
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2026 14:56:47 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260325065647.2882997-3-wei.fang@nxp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260325065647.2882997-1-wei.fang@nxp.com>
VFs do not have privilege to configure the RSS key because the registers
are owned by the PF. Currently, if a VF attempts to onfigure the RSS key,
enetc_set_rxfh() simply skips the configuration and does not generate a
warning, which may mislead users into thinking the feature is supported.
To improve this situation, add a check to reject RSS key configuration
on VFs.
Fixes: d382563f541b ("enetc: Add RFS and RSS support")
