Subject: [PATCH net 2/3] net/mlx5e: Sync CQE moderation params with pflags in set_pflag_cqe_based_moder
Date: Wed, 14 Oct 2026 15:47:03 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261014124704.1017782-3-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261014124704.1017782-1-tariqt@nvidia.com>
From: Yael Chemla <ychemla@nvidia.com>
When CQE-based moderation is toggled via the priv-flag path
(ethtool --set-priv-flags ... rx_cqe_moder / tx_cqe_moder),
set_pflag_cqe_based_moder() updates only params->pflags and does not
update rx_moder_use_cqe_mode / tx_moder_use_cqe_mode. After the toggle,
--show-priv-flags reflects the new state but get_coalesce (and thus
ethtool -c) still reports the old state because it reads from the
params fields.
Fix by setting new_params.rx_moder_use_cqe_mode or
new_params.tx_moder_use_cqe_mode in set_pflag_cqe_based_moder() when
toggling the corresponding priv flag, so both representations stay
in sync.
Additionally, new_params.rx_cq_moderation / new_params.tx_cq_moderation
are left as a copy of the old params, so ethtool -c reports stale
rx_coalesce_usecs after the toggle. Fix by calling
mlx5e_reset_rx/tx_moderation() on new_params to overwrite usec with
the default for the new period mode before storing it into
priv->channels.params.
Reproducer:
ethtool -C eth2 adaptive-rx off
ethtool --show-priv-flags eth2 | grep -E 'rx_cqe_moder|tx_cqe_moder'
rx_cqe_moder : on
tx_cqe_moder : off
ethtool -c eth2 | grep -E 'rx-usecs:|CQE mode'
rx-usecs: 3
CQE mode RX: on TX: off
ethtool --set-priv-flags eth2 rx_cqe_moder off
ethtool --set-priv-flags eth2 tx_cqe_moder on
ethtool --show-priv-flags eth2 | grep -E 'rx_cqe_moder|tx_cqe_moder'
rx_cqe_moder : off
tx_cqe_moder : on
ethtool -c eth2 | grep -E 'rx-usecs:|CQE mode'
rx-usecs: 3 # stale: EQE default is 16
CQE mode RX: on TX: off # stale: priv-flags changed, CQE mode did not
