Subject: [PATCH v2 04/11] net/mlx5: skip the unneeded resource index allocation
Date: Thu, 29 Feb 2024 12:51:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240229115157.201671-5-dsosnowski@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240229115157.201671-1-dsosnowski@nvidia.com>

From: Bing Zhao <bingz@nvidia.com>

The resource index was introduced to decouple the flow rule and its
resources used by hardware steering. This is needed only when a rule
update is supported.

In some cases, the update is not supported on a table(matcher). E.g.:
  * Table is resizable
  * FW gets involved
  * Root table
  * Not index based or optimized (not applicable)

Or only one STE entry is required per rule. When doing an update, the
operation is always atomic. There is no need for the extra resource
index either.

If the matcher doesn't support rule update or the maximal entry is
only 1 for this matcher, there is no need to manage the resource
index allocation and free from the pool.
