Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] net/mlx5e: Select DCBX HOST/AUTO from capability flags in setdcbx
Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2026 14:28:59 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261011112900.802150-2-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261011112900.802150-1-tariqt@nvidia.com>
From: Alexei Lazar <alazar@nvidia.com>
mlx5e_dcbnl_setdcbx() used two different policies: mode 0 switched
firmware to AUTO, and any other request was accepted only with
DCB_CAP_DCBX_HOST.
Switch the firmware HOST/AUTO modes based on the DCB_CAP_DCBX_HOST
bit. This better aligns with the DCBX capability flags. It also
allows folding the two different code paths into one.
When switching to firmware-controlled (non-host) mode, report CEE,
IEEE and LLD_MANAGED together due to a FW limitation.
