For performance reasons there is a need to have support for selectable Tx scheduler topology. Currently firmware supports only the default 9-layer and 5-layer topology. This patch series enables switch from default to 5-layer topology, if user decides to opt-in.
I sent it again to iwl list, because we need to test that change, devlink change is rather mechanical. @Tony - who should send it to netdev list after getting Tested-by tag from our Validation? --- v7: - fixed comments from v6 in commit 1 and commit 5 - included Documentation change that should be in v6 (reboot -> PCI slot powercycle) - added Reviewed-by tag to commit 1 and commit 6 v6: - extended devlink_param *set pointer to accept one more parameter - extack - adjusted all drivers that use *set pointer to pass one more parameter - updated Documentation - changed "reboot" to "PCI slot powercycle", kept Kuba's ACK - removed "Error: " prefix from NL_SET_ERR_MSG_MOD function in ice_devlink.c - removed/adjusted messages sent to end user in ice_devlink.c https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240305143942.23757-1-mateusz.polchlo...@intel.com/ v5: - updated Documentation commit as suggested in v4 https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240228142054.474626-1-mateusz.polchlo...@intel.com/ v4: - restored the initial way of passing firmware data to ice_cfg_tx_topo function in ice_init_tx_topology function in ice_main.c file. In v2 and v3 version it was passed as const u8 parameter which caused kernel crash.
