From cbc796be1779c4dbc9a482c7233995e2a8b6bfb3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cosmin Ratiu Date: Thu, 8 Aug 2024 17:41:05 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5e: Correctly report errors for ethtool rx flows Previously, an ethtool rx flow with no attrs would not be added to the NIC as it has no rules to configure the hw with, but it would be reported as successful to the caller (return code 0). This is confusing for the user as ethtool then reports "Added rule $num", but no rule was actually added. This change corrects that by instead reporting these wrong rules as -EINVAL.
