[PATCH net-next v7 0/2] net: libwx: improve VF ethtool support

[PATCH net-next v7 0/2] net: libwx: improve VF ethtool support

[Mengyuan Lou]

This series improves ethtool support for Wangxun VF drivers
(ngbevf and txgbevf) in libwx.

This series extends VF support by enabling:
ring parameter configuration via ethtool -G
interrupt coalescing configuration via ethtool -C

Patch 1 adds support for set_ringparam in wx_ethtool_ops_vf,
allowing VF users to adjust TX/RX descriptor ring sizes.
Patch 2 enables set_coalesce support for VF devices and updates
EITR programming to use the VF-specific register access helper.

Changelog:
v7:
- Remove patch3 and netdev_stat_ops support is deferred to a follow-up patch.
v6: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260701100145.23738-1-mengyuanlou@net-swift.com/
- Patch 1:
  Clarify comments describing wx_set_ring() failure semantics.
- Patch 2:
  Expand commit message to explain VF ITR encoding changes.
- Patch 3:
  Protect ring accesses in wx_update_stats().
v5: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260615104849.60444-1-mengyuanlou@net-swift.com
- Patch 3:
  Convert WX_NUM_{RX,TX}_QUEUES macros to take explicit netdev parameter
  as suggested by Simon Horman.
v4: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260608103946.25786-1-mengyuanlou@net-swift.com
  sashiko: https://netdev-ai.bots.linux.dev/sashiko/#/patchset/20260529075147.88398-1-mengyuanlou%40net-swift.com
- Patch 2:
  PF and VF share the same ITR value range. Update wx_write_eitr_vf() to apply
  identical range clamping as the PF path, ensuring consistent coalesce behavior
  across both device types.
- Patch 3:
  Remove wx_update_stats in wxvf_down.
  Replace both WX_GLOBAL_STATS_LEN and WX_STATS_LEN macros with type-safe
  static helpers wx_global_stats_len() and wx_stats_len().
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260529075147.88398-1-mengyuanlou@net-swift.com
- Patch 3:
  Drop netdev_stat_ops support from this patch.
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260525101115.13151-1-mengyuanlou@net-swift.com
- Patch 3:
  Remove some stats which can be replaced by standard stats defined in
  include/net/netdev_queues.h.
- Patch 1:
  Adding a return value to wx_set_ring to make wx_set_ringparam_vf can
  be passed back to userspace.
  Remove freeing and requesting of IRQs. Ring resize only updates descriptor
  resources and does not change MSI-X vector or interrupt configuration,
  so IRQs do not need to be reallocated.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260514103405.42175-1-mengyuanlou@net-swift.com

[PATCH net-next v7 1/2] net: libwx: add support for set_ringparam in wx_ethtool_ops_vf

[Mengyuan Lou]

Add support for the set_ringparam in wx_ethtool_ops_vf,
which is used to set ring sizes for ngbevf and txgbevf.

would be much better to move tempbuf allocation into the helper,
and just do it at the beginning there

in the unlikely event of -ENOMEM, you will just call the "up"
in the unroll path

[PATCH net-next v7 2/2] net: libwx: add support for set_coalesce in wx_ethtool_ops_vf

[Mengyuan Lou]

Add support for set_coalesce in wx_ethtool_ops_vf, which
is used to set interrupt coalescing parameters.

Update wx_write_eitr_vf() to use the same interrupt
moderation encoding as PF devices, since PF and VF share
the same register layout. And remove the now-unused
WX_VXITR_MASK definition.
