Subject: [PATCH v2] doc/guides: Mention needed kernel option for mlx5
Date: Thu, 6 Mar 2025 22:09:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA++ArTjpo7QE5t4F0eevDsiuWtB_WN12FU9nxakxQ2a=nFxp5w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
On some kernels (Debian 6.6, 6.9 and 6.10 tested),
there is a missing option for "TC recirculation"
that prevents MLX5 driver to include CONFIG_MLX5_CLS_ACT
in the compilation, thus preventing PF1
from properly working in multiport-eswitch mode.
Fixes: 11c73de9ef63 ("net/mlx5: probe multi-port E-Switch device")
v2:
- Added additional MLX5 kernel option
- Fixed patch formatting
- Added "Fixes" tag
