[PATCH net-next 03/12] eth: mlx5: allow disabling queues when RSS contexts exist

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Since commit 24ac7e544081 ("ethtool: use the rss context XArray
in ring deactivation safety-check") core will prevent queues from
being disabled while being used by additional RSS contexts.
The safety check is no longer necessary, and core will do a more
accurate job of only rejecting changes which can actually break
things.
