Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/7] net/mlx5: E-Switch, move work queue generation counter
Date: Thu, 9 Apr 2026 14:55:45 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260409115550.156419-3-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260409115550.156419-1-tariqt@nvidia.com>
From: Mark Bloch <mbloch@nvidia.com>
The generation counter in mlx5_esw_functions is used to detect stale
work items on the E-Switch work queue. Move it from mlx5_esw_functions
to the top-level mlx5_eswitch struct so it can guard all work types,
not just function-change events.
This is a mechanical refactor: no behavioral change.
