[PATCH net] net: bcmgenet: restore the hardware filters on open

From: Nicolai Buchwitz <hidden>
Date: 2026-09-13 19:01:10
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: broadcom genet ethernet driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Doug Berger, Florian Fainelli, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

bcmgenet_hfb_init() runs INIT_LIST_HEAD() on priv->rxnfc_list, which drops
every rule off the list, and bcmgenet_open() calls it on each ifup. Every
rule the user configured is silently lost:

  # ethtool -N eth0 flow-type ether dst $MAC action 0
  Added rule with ID 0
  # ethtool -n eth0 | grep -c Filter:
  1
  # ip link set eth0 down && ip link set eth0 up
  # ethtool -n eth0 | grep -c Filter:
  0

Initialise the lists once at probe and restore the rules on open, as
bcmgenet_resume() already does.

Fixes: 3e370952287c ("net: bcmgenet: add support for ethtool rxnfc flows")
