Hi Mina,
Thank you so much for your review :)

There are several same code in the ethtool core.
It returns EOPNOTSUPP consistently.
In the v3 series, Brett reviewed it.
So, I changed it from EINVAL to EOPNOTSUPP it was reasonable to me.
So I prefer EOPNOTSUPP but I will follow your decision.
What do you think?

I removed extack from the v3. because ethtool doesn't use extack for
the same logic. It was reasonable to me.

How about setting maximum hds_threshold to 0?
The default value of hds_threshold of course 0.
I think gve code does not need to change much, just adding like below
will be okay.

I think if drivers don't support setting hds_threshold explicitly, it
is actually the same as support only 0.
So, there is no problem I think.

I didn't analyze gve driver code, So I might think it too optimistically.

#define GVE_HDS_THRESHOLD_MAX 0
kernel_ering->hds_thresh = GVE_HDS_THRESHOLD_MAX;
kernel_ering->hds_thresh_max = GVE_HDS_THRESHOLD_MAX;
...
.supported_ring_params  = ETHTOOL_RING_USE_TCP_DATA_SPLIT |
ETHTOOL_RING_USE_HDS_THRS,

ethtool command may show like this.
ethtool -g enp7s0f3np3
Ring parameters for enp7s0f3np3:
Pre-set maximums:
...
Header data split thresh:       0
Current hardware settings:
...
TCP data split:         on
Header data split thresh:       0

If a driver can't set up hds_threshold, ethtool command may show like this.
ethtool -g enp7s0f3np3
Ring parameters for enp7s0f3np3:
Pre-set maximums:
TX push buff len:       n/a
Header data split thresh:       n/a
Current hardware settings:
...
TCP data split:         on
Header data split thresh:       n/a

Thanks a lot!
