This series fixes inconsistent errno usage in igb/igc/ixgbe. The drivers
return -ENOTSUPP instead of -EOPNOTSUPP in specific ethtool and PTP
functions, therefore userland programs would get "Unknown error 524".
Use -EOPNOTSUPP instead of -ENOTSUPP to fix the issue.
This series covers all incorrect usage of ENOTSUPP in Intel ethernet
drivers except the one in iavf, which should be targeted for iwl-next in
a separate series since it's just a comment. [1]
For igb and igc, I used a simple reproducer for testing [2] on I350 and
I226-V respectively.
Without this series:
# strace -e ioctl ./errno-repro
ioctl(3, SIOCETHTOOL, 0x7ffcde13cec0) = -1 ENOTSUPP (Unknown error 524)
With this series:
# strace -e ioctl ./errno-repro
ioctl(3, SIOCETHTOOL, 0x7ffd69a28c40) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not
supported)
For ixgbe, I used the testptp for testing on 82599ES.
Without this series:
# strace -e ioctl ./testptp -d /dev/ptp1 -P 1
ioctl(3, PTP_ENABLE_PPS, 0x1) = -1 ENOTSUPP (Unknown error 524)
With this series:
# strace -e ioctl ./testptp -d /dev/ptp1 -P 1
ioctl(3, PTP_ENABLE_PPS, 0x1) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not
supported)
