Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 11/15] idpf: print a debug message and bail in case of non-event ctlq message
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2026 14:53:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260710215313.1475803-12-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260710215313.1475803-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>

From: Larysa Zaremba <larysa.zaremba@intel.com>

Unlike previous internal idpf ctlq implementation, idpf calls the default
message handler for all received messages that do not have a matching xn
transaction, not only for VIRTCHNL2_OP_EVENT. This leads to many error
messages printing garbage, because the parsing expected a valid event
message, but got e.g. a delayed response for a timed-out transaction.

The information about timed-out transactions and otherwise unhandleable
messages can still be valuable for developers, so print the information
with dynamic debug and exit the function, so the following functions can
parse valid events in peace.
