[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix eagain on admin down

[Mike Manning]

The check in mlx5_link_update_unlocked_gs() returns -EAGAIN if link
status does not correspond to link speed. If status is DOWN, the speed
is expected to be ETH_SPEED_NUM_NONE (0). But as the link speed is -1
on admin down, modify the check to account for this.

[Slava Ovsiienko]

Hi, Mike     

In the mlx5_link_update_unlocked_gs() the dev_link.link_speed is set like this:

dev_link.link_speed = (ecmd->speed == UINT32_MAX) ? ETH_SPEED_NUM_NONE :  ecmd->speed;

So, dev_link.link_speed can't be assigned with -1. Do I misunderstand you commit message? 

With best regards, Slava

Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix eagain on admin down

[Mike Manning]

Hi Slava,
Thanks, you are right - I retract my patch, as this was fixed in v19.08
by 6fd05da9efbd ("net/mlx5: fix link speed info when link is down") as
per the line you indicate.

I should explain that we are using Debian 10 which uses v18.11, here we
had a painful issue with the combination of this -EAGAIN and use of
netlink to obtain the ifindex resulting in concurrent use of the netlink
socket causing the calling thread to block indefinitely.

Regards
Mike

JFYI, there is the patch: http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/56813/
It provides caching for ifindex, netlink is not involved anymore.
