Subject: [PATCH net-next 4/5] net/mlx5e: resize configured default RSS context table on channel change
Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 20:27:18 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260511172719.330490-5-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260511172719.330490-1-tariqt@nvidia.com>
From: Yael Chemla <ychemla@nvidia.com>
mlx5e_ethtool_set_channels() rejected channel count changes that
required a different RQT size when the default context indirection
table was user-configured. This restriction was introduced by
commit ee3572409f74 ("net/mlx5e: RSS, Block changing channels number
when RXFH is configured").
Lift the restriction. Validate the resize upfront with
ethtool_rxfh_indir_can_resize(), then fold or unfold the table
in-place via ethtool_rxfh_indir_resize() inside state_lock, before
mlx5e_safe_switch_params(), so the preactivate callback sees the
correct table content when it programs the HW.
