Subject: [PATCH net-next 13/15] i40e: Avoid repeating RX filter warning
Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 14:35:38 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260805213541.2281287-14-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260805213541.2281287-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>
From: Chris Packham <chris.packham@alliedtelesis.co.nz>
When the i40e runs out of space for RX filters the driver switches to
promiscuous mode and warns that it has done so. In scenarios with a
large number of these filters this can generate a lot of warnings. For
example:
$ dmesg -c > /dev/null
$ ip link add dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1 vlan_default_pvid 1
$ ip link set dev eth7 master br0
$ bridge vlan add vid 1 dev eth7 pvid untagged self
$ bridge vlan add vid 2-4094 dev eth7 tagged
$ dmesg
[ 25.601705] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF
[ 25.601833] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF
[ 25.601961] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF
[ 25.602088] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF
[ 25.602216] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF
[ 25.602344] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF
...
Use test_and_set_bit() so that the warning is only issued when the
driver enables promiscuous mode and not on the addition of subsequent RX
filters.
