Subject: [PATCH net] s390/qeth: allow bridgeport queries despite OS_MISMATCH
Date: Tue,  1 Sep 2026 17:53:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901155344.3561483-1-nagamani@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

When HiperSockets interfaces on the same VCHID span different OS
families, reads of the sysfs attributes bridge_role and bridge_state
fail with -EPERM if bridge port ownership belongs to another OS family.

As a result, userspace tools such as 'lszdev -ii' cannot retrieve
bridge_role and bridge_state, even though firmware returns valid bridge
port data for QUERY_BRIDGE_PORTS requests.

The firmware reports IPA_RC_SBP_IQD_OS_MISMATCH (0x0010) to indicate
that bridge port ownership belongs to a different OS family. For
QUERY_BRIDGE_PORTS operations, firmware still returns valid bridge port
data (role=none, state=inactive) together with a primary return code of
0x0000 (success).

Allow QUERY_BRIDGE_PORTS requests to return the bridge port data
provided by the firmware despite OS_MISMATCH. To make the OS family
mismatch visible to userspace, represent the firmware-reported role
"none" as "none (OS family mismatch)" while preserving the reported
bridge_state.

The behavior for non-QUERY bridge port commands is unchanged; SET
operations continue to return -EPERM when another OS family owns the
bridge port.

This restores readability of bridge_role and bridge_state.

Fixes: 1b05cf6285c1 ("qeth: Include error message for "OS Mismatch"")
