Subject: [PATCH net-next 7/7] net/mlx5: Add profile to auto-enable switchdev mode at device init
Date: Thu, 9 Apr 2026 14:55:50 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260409115550.156419-8-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260409115550.156419-1-tariqt@nvidia.com>
From: Mark Bloch <mbloch@nvidia.com>
Deployments that always operate in switchdev mode currently require
manual devlink configuration after driver probe, which complicates
automated provisioning.
Introduce MLX5_PROF_MASK_DEF_SWITCHDEV, a new profile mask bit, and
profile index 4. When a device is initialized or reloaded with this
profile, the driver automatically switches the e-switch to switchdev
mode by calling mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set() immediately after
bringing the device online.
A no-op stub of mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set() is added for builds
without CONFIG_MLX5_ESWITCH.
