[PATCH net-next V4 2/2] net/mlx5: implement max_sfs parameter

From: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@nvidia.com>
Date: 2026-07-23 08:27:51
Also in: linux-doc, linux-rdma, lkml
Subsystem: documentation, mellanox mlx5 core vpi driver, networking drivers, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Saeed Mahameed, Leon Romanovsky, Tariq Toukan, Mark Bloch, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Nikolay Aleksandrov <redacted>

Implement max_sfs generic parameter to allow users to control the total
light-weight NIC subfunctions that can be created using devlink instead
of external vendor tools. A value of 0 will effectively disable creation
of new subfunction devices. A warning is sent to user-space via extack
(returning extack without error code is interpreted as a warning by
user-space tools). The maximum value is capped at U16_MAX.
