From: Brett Creeley Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2026 21:21:21 +0000 (-0700) Subject: virtio_net: sync rss_trailer.max_tx_vq on queue_pairs change via VQ_PAIRS_SET X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3bc06da858ef17cfe94b49efc0d9713727012835;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git virtio_net: sync rss_trailer.max_tx_vq on queue_pairs change via VQ_PAIRS_SET When netif_is_rxfh_configured() is true (i.e., the user has explicitly configured the RSS indirection table), virtnet_set_queues() skips the RSS update path and falls through to the VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_VQ_PAIRS_SET command to change the number of queue pairs. However, it does not update vi->rss_trailer.max_tx_vq to reflect the new queue_pairs value. This causes a mismatch between vi->curr_queue_pairs and vi->rss_trailer.max_tx_vq. Any subsequent RSS reconfiguration (e.g., via ethtool -X) calls virtnet_commit_rss_command(), which sends the stale max_tx_vq to the device, silently reverting the queue count. Reproduction: 1. User configured RSS ethtool -X eth0 equal 8 2. VQ_PAIRS_SET path; max_tx_vq stays 16 ethtool -L eth0 combined 12 3. RSS commit uses max_tx_vq=16 instead of 12 ethtool -X eth0 equal 4 Fix this by updating vi->rss_trailer.max_tx_vq after a successful VQ_PAIRS_SET command when RSS is enabled, keeping it in sync with curr_queue_pairs.
