Subject: [PATCH iwl-next v2] ice: call netif_keep_dst() once when entering switchdev mode
Date: Wed, 8 Apr 2026 16:14:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260408141429.2798589-1-aleksandr.loktionov@intel.com> (raw)
From: Marcin Szycik <marcin.szycik@intel.com>
netif_keep_dst() only needs to be called once for the uplink VSI, not
once for each port representor. Move it from ice_eswitch_setup_repr()
to ice_eswitch_enable_switchdev().
Fixes: defd52455aee ("ice: do Tx through PF netdev in slow-path")

v1 -> v2:
- Verified Fixes: tag via bisect - defd52455aee introduced the redundant
per-repr call to netif_keep_dst(uplink_vsi->netdev) by changing the
target netdev to the uplink VSI inside the per-representor setup
function. Before that commit, each call was on a distinct repr->netdev
so no Fixes: predating it applies.
