From 079986d6db1f8e3d50c55f400cf998ac9690d2c8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavan Chebbi Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2026 10:53:11 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] bnxt_en: Fix RSS context delete logic [ Upstream commit e123d9302d223767bd910bfbcfe607bae909f8ac ] We need to free the corresponding RSS context VNIC in FW everytime an RSS context is deleted in driver. Commit 667ac333dbb7 added a check to delete the VNIC in FW only when netif_running() is true to help delete RSS contexts with interface down. Having that condition will make the driver leak VNICs in FW whenever close() happens with active RSS contexts. On the subsequent open(), as part of RSS context restoration, we will end up trying to create extra VNICs for which we did not make any reservation. FW can fail this request, thereby making us lose active RSS contexts. Suppose an RSS context is deleted already and we try to process a delete request again, then the HWRM functions will check for validity of the request and they simply return if the resource is already freed. So, even for delete-when-down cases, netif_running() check is not necessary. Remove the netif_running() condition check when deleting an RSS context.
