net/mlx5: prepend implicit items in sync flow creation
[..]
Hello Maxime, Luca,
Commit 471350f6cd ("net/mlx5: prepend implicit items in sync flow
creation") on 24.11 regresses eSwitch HWS when representor matching is
disabled (repr_matching_en=0): traffic that should hit PF NIC Rx rules
after FDB transfer is no longer received.
The backport dropped the priv->sh->config.repr_matching checks that
previously gated implicit REPRESENTED_PORT / REG_C_0 prepending. That is
correct on upstream main after repr_matching_en was removed
(c41f621786), but on 24.11 the option still exists and, when off, TX
representor tagging is not set up. Unconditionally prepending those
matches then scopes NIC rules incorrectly.
I think we should be ok for 23.11 as the commit that was being fixed was
introduced in 24.07 so the backport is not relevant.
e909fd3a90 S F net/mlx5: prepend implicit items in sync flow creation
(24.07)
and ok for 25.11 as c41f621786 is present.
$ git tag --contains c41f621786 | grep v25.11
v25.11
Dariusz volunteered to send a fix.
We will send our full report soon.
Regards,
Ali
