Subject: [PATCH net-next v8 12/15] ibmveth: Report MQ-aware RX counts in ethtool get_channels
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2026 15:55:53 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109235556.60604-13-mmc@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109235556.60604-1-mmc@linux.ibm.com>

Report MQ-aware channel limits and counts from get_channels():

  - max_rx is IBMVETH_MAX_RX_QUEUES when MQ firmware is enabled and
    mq_fallback is not set, else the live rx_count
  - rx_count tracks the driver's published num_rx_queues

Previously get_channels() mirrored netdev->real_num_rx_queues for both
fields, which under-reports max_rx on MQ firmware. Here every publish
of num_rx_queues is paired with a matching real_num, so rx_count does
not change yet; reading the published count keeps it right once the
resize patches can publish a count that real_num fails to reach.

This patch only reports. The set_channels() rx_count reject lives in
the MQ enable patch; the live RX set lands with the incremental resize
patch. Once mq_fallback is set but not yet applied, rx_count is still N
until the next open; max_rx follows rx_count rather than dropping
to 1, because the ethtool core rejects a TX-only -L that
resubmits rx_count above max_rx.

mq_fallback is set from the replenish path without RTNL and is now
read under RTNL here, so its accesses use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(),
including the two writers the MQ enable patch added.

Keep this out of the stats patch: channel reporting is ethtool -l ABI,
independent of per-queue counters, so it can be reviewed and blamed on
its own.

Changes in v8:
- get_channels max_rx is the live rx_count when single queue or once
  mq_fallback is set, not a fixed 1 (the v7 patch 15 cap moves here)
- mq_fallback uses READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(): replenish writes it
  without RTNL
- the set_channels rx_count reject is now in patch 10

Changes in v7:
- reject rx_count change with -EOPNOTSUPP in
  set_channels() until patch 14 implements resize
- noted: TX-only read-modify-write still passes;
  max_rx stays here (reject, not reorder);
  get_channels uses the adapter count,
  get_base_stats uses real_num; RX max is
  MAX_RX_QUEUES, not the TX CPU cap; P14
  wires live rx_count resize; P15 is the
  tip ABI (live rx_count, max_rx cap on
  mq_fallback, max_tx at least the live tx_count)

Changes in v5:
- get_channels rx_count via get_num_rx_queues() (READ_ONCE consistency)
- New peel: get_channels from v4 stats -> tip P12 (14->15)
- get_channels: max_rx = MAX_RX_QUEUES when MQ else 1; rx_count =
  get_num_rx_queues() (was mirroring real_num_rx_queues for both)
