With RX coalescing, one CQE entry can be used to indicate multiple packets
on the receive queue. This saves processing time and PCI bandwidth over
the CQ.

Why didn't you change mana_cfg_vport_steering() too?

There is no need in NULL here, req is going to be overwritten almost
immediately.

The mana_cfg_vport_steering() is for mana_en (Enthernet) driver, not the
mana_ib driver.
The changes for mana_en will be done in a separate patch together with
changes for mana_en RX code patch to support multiple packets / CQE.

I'm aware of the difference between mana_en and mana_ib.
The change you proposed doesn't depend on "support multiple packets / CQE."
and works perfectly with one packet/CQE also, does it?

No.
If we add the following setting to the mana_en / mana_cfg_vport_steering(),
the NIC may put multiple packets in one CQE, so we need to have the changes
for mana_en RX code path to support multiple packets / CQE.
+ req->cqe_coalescing_enable = true;
So we plan to set this cqe_coalescing_enable, and the changes for mana_en
RX code path to support multiple packets / CQE in another patch.

You can leave "cqe_coalescing_enable = false" for ETH and still reuse
your new v2 struct.

And how does it work with IB without changing anything except this
proposed patch?

I think your proposal will work for both Ethernet and IB.
The idea is that we want this patch to change the behavior of the IB driver. We plan to make another patch for the Ethernet driver. This makes it easier to track all changes for a driver.

The RX CQE Coalescing is implemented in the user-mode. This feature is always turned on from cluster. The user-mode code is written in a way that can deal with both CQE Coalescing and CQE non-coalescing, so it doesn't depend on kernel version for the correct behavior.

And I don't want to deal with deletion of v1 struct for two/three kernel
cycles instead of one patch in one cycle.

Yes, but how does userspace know that CQE coalescing was enabled?

I'm resubmitting this patch to replace v1 for both driver.

The user-mode doesn't know if CQE is enabled in advance. If this information is required I can modify the patch to pass this information along to rdma-core. However, this is not useful as the cluster is running with CQE coalescing enabled by default, there is no need to know this information.

It is ok, not needed. if we can do something without UAPI involvement,
it will be always preferable way.
