Subject: [PATCH v8 2/3] wifi: ath11k: remove skb parameter from get_ring_selector
Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2026 08:07:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261021060725.242681-3-jtornosm@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261021060725.242681-1-jtornosm@redhat.com>
Change the get_ring_selector hw_ops callback signature from
get_ring_selector(struct sk_buff *skb) to get_ring_selector(u8 ac),
removing the dependency on the skb.
After the previous patch switched WCN6750 from skb_get_hash() to
skb_get_queue_mapping(), all get_ring_selector implementations fall
into two categories:
- smp_processor_id(): ignores the skb entirely
- skb_get_queue_mapping(): only reads the AC value from the skb
Since the AC is the only information extracted from the skb, pass it
directly as a u8 parameter instead. Callers in the dp_tx path now
pass skb_get_queue_mapping(skb), which preserves the exact same
behavior.
This change enables a subsequent patch to call get_ring_selector()
from wake_tx_queue using txq->ac, without needing access to the skb.
mac80211 guarantees that skb_get_queue_mapping(skb) == txq->ac
for any skb dequeued from a given txq, since both values are
derived from the same skb->priority through the same AC mapping.
No functional change.
