Subject: [PATCH 23.11] net/mlx5: fix actions translation error overwrite
Date: Wed, 9 Apr 2025 09:35:59 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250409063559.288037-1-junfengg@nvidia.com> (raw)

[ upstream commit 494da70e289c6a603185c890111f95568eb1fd63 ]

Function __flow_hw_translate_actions_template contains several
encapsulated functions that already have internal error handling
process via rte_flow_error_set for each case.

Thus the one (rte_flow_error_set) within the goto statement `err`
at the end of __flow_hw_translate_actions_template function may be
redundant for those failed cases. As a result, the error messages
would all be overwritten as "fail to create rte table", making it
displayed at quite large granularity.

To prevent above error messages overwrite, this patch add a local
variable `struct rte_flow_error sub_error` to the function and pass
this `sub_error` instead of `error` to each sub-function. Under error
handling process (`err` label), if `sub_error` was updated, copy its
contents to `error` and return. If it was not updated, return default
error message (`fail to create rte table`).

Also refactor the logic for SEND_TO_KERNEL, COUNT and AGE actions in
above function to align the error handling process.

Fixes: f13fab23922b ("net/mlx5: add flow jump action")
