Commit99ba0ea616("sfc: adjust efx->xdp_tx_queue_count with the real number of initialized queues") intended to fix a problem caused by a round up when calculating the number of XDP channels and queues. However, this was not the real problem. The real problem was that the number of XDP TX queues had been reduced to half in commite26ca4b535("sfc: reduce the number of requested xdp ev queues"), but the variable xdp_tx_queue_count had remained the same. Once the correct number of XDP TX queues is created again in the previous patch of this series, this also can be reverted since the error doesn't actually exist. Only in the case that there is a bug in the code we can have different values in xdp_queue_number and efx->xdp_tx_queue_count. Because of this, and per Edward Cree's suggestion, I add instead a WARN_ON to catch if it happens again in the future. Note that the number of allocated queues can be higher than the number of used ones due to the round up, as explained in the existing comment in the code. That's why we also have to stop increasing xdp_queue_number beyond efx->xdp_tx_queue_count. Signed-off-by: Íñigo Huguet <ihuguet@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
