Hello Bart, I agree with you that the name "MAX_ENTRIES" is misleading. This define MLX5_FS_MAX_ENTRIES is needed to compare num_entries with max_table_size which is represented in BIT() format. The max_table was added in previous patch and we thought that it will be much convenient for the reader to compare the same BIT(..) constructions. If you think that we abused the BIT() macro, let me know and I'll send updated version (without BIT()). > > Thanks, Thanks > > Bart.
