> Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH iwl-net v2] iavf: validate tx_coalesce_usecs
> even if rx_coalesce_usecs is zero
> 
> In __iavf_set_coalesce, the driver checks both ec->rx_coalesce_usecs and
> ec->tx_coalesce_usecs for validity. It does this via a chain if
> ec->if/else-if
> blocks. If every single branch of the series of if statements exited, this 
> would
> be fine. However, the rx_coalesce_usecs is checked against zero to print an
> informative message if use_adaptive_rx_coalesce is enabled. If this check is
> true, it short circuits the entire chain of statements, preventing validation 
> of
> the tx_coalesce_usecs field.
> 
> Indeed, since commit e792779e6b63 ("iavf: Prevent changing static ITR values
> if adaptive moderation is on") the iavf driver actually rejects any change to 
> the
> tx_coalesce_usecs or rx_coalesce_usecs when use_adaptive_tx_coalesce or
> use_adaptive_rx_coalesce is enabled, making this checking a bit redundant.
> 
> Fix this error by removing the unnecessary and redundant checks for
> use_adaptive_rx_coalesce and use_adaptive_tx_coalesce. Since zero is a valid
> value, and since the tx_coalesce_usecs and rx_coalesce_usecs fields are 
> already
> unsigned, remove the minimum value check. This allows assigning an ITR value
> ranging from 0-8160 as described by the printed message.
