If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Aleksandr Loktionov [ Upstream commit d8ae40dc20cbd7bb6e6b36a928e2db2296060ad2 ] ixgbe_get_drvinfo() calls ixgbe_refresh_fw_version() on every ethtool query for e610 adapters. That ends up in ixgbe_discover_flash_size(), which bisects the full 16 MB NVM space issuing one ACI command per step (~20 ms each, ~24 steps total = ~500 ms). Profiling on an idle E610-XAT2 system with telegraf scraping ethtool stats every 10 seconds: kretprobe:ixgbe_get_drvinfo took 527603 us kretprobe:ixgbe_get_drvinfo took 523978 us kretprobe:ixgbe_get_drvinfo took 552975 us kretprobe:ice_get_drvinfo took 3 us kretprobe:igb_get_drvinfo took 2 us kretprobe:i40e_get_drvinfo took 5 us The half-second stall happens under the RTNL lock, causing visible latency on ip-link and friends. The FW version can only change after an EMPR reset. All flash data is already populated at probe time and the cached adapter->eeprom_id is what get_drvinfo should be returning. The only place that needs to trigger a re-read is ixgbe_devlink_reload_empr_finish(), right after the EMPR completes and new firmware is running. Additionally, refresh the FW version in ixgbe_reinit_locked() so that any PF that undergoes a reinit after an EMPR (e.g. triggered by another PF's devlink reload) also picks up the new version in adapter->eeprom_id. ixgbe_devlink_info_get() keeps its refresh call for explicit "devlink dev info" queries, which is fine given those are user-initiated.
