Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ice: fix VF creation when !CONFIG_ICE_SWITCHDEV
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 14:51:25 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260429065127.423949-1-vincent.chen@sifive.com> (raw)

This patch series fixes an issue where VF creation fails when
CONFIG_ICE_SWITCHDEV is disabled.

When CONFIG_ICE_SWITCHDEV is disabled, the stub function
ice_eswitch_attach_vf() returns -EOPNOTSUPP, causing VF initialization to
fail even though basic VF functionality should work without switchdev
support.

The fix is split into two patches:
1. Add switchdev mode checks at caller sites to fix the immediate
   issue while maintaining backward compatibility. This ensures
   ice_eswitch_attach_vf() is only called when switchdev mode is
   enabled, consistent with how ice_eswitch_attach_sf() is handled.
2. Remove the now-redundant internal switchdev check from
   ice_eswitch_attach_vf().

Vincent Chen (2):
  ice: allow creating VFs when !CONFIG_ICE_SWITCHDEV
  ice: remove redundant switchdev check in ice_eswitch_attach_vf()
