Subject: [PATCH net-next 3/3] bnxt: convert to core rx_mode retry mechanism
Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 18:41:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260527014117.1401809-4-sdf@fomichev.me> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260527014117.1401809-1-sdf@fomichev.me>
Remove the driver-specific BNXT_STATE_L2_FILTER_RETRY + timer + sp_task
retry mechanism and rely on the core stack's ndo_set_rx_mode_async retry
instead.
bnxt_cfg_rx_mode() now returns errors (including -ENODEV when the VF
cannot reach the PF), allowing the core stack to schedule retries with
exponential backoff.
Call core's netif_rx_mode_schedule_retry during reset to handle
VF reopen.
