Hello Sunil Goutham,
The patch 4863dea3fab0: "net: Adding support for Cavium ThunderX
network controller" from May 26, 2015, leads to the following static
checker warning:
drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/thunder/nicvf_ethtool.c:517 nicvf_set_rxfh()
warn: we tested 'hkey' before and it was 'false'
drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/thunder/nicvf_ethtool.c
506 /* We do not allow change in unsupported parameters */
507 if (hkey ||
^^^^
We return here.
508 (hfunc != ETH_RSS_HASH_NO_CHANGE && hfunc != ETH_RSS_HASH_TOP))
509 return -EOPNOTSUPP;
510
511 rss->enable = true;
512 if (indir) {
513 for (idx = 0; idx < rss->rss_size; idx++)
514 rss->ind_tbl[idx] = indir[idx];
515 }
516
517 if (hkey) {
^^^^
So this is dead code.
518 memcpy(rss->key, hkey, RSS_HASH_KEY_SIZE * sizeof(u64));
519 nicvf_set_rss_key(nic);
520 }
521
522 nicvf_config_rss(nic);
523 return 0;
524 }
regards,
dan carpenter
