On control planes that allow changing the MAC address of the interface, the driver must provide a MAC type to avoid errors such as: idpf 0000:0a:00.0: Transaction failed (op 535) idpf 0000:0a:00.0: Received invalid MAC filter payload (op 535) (len 0) idpf 0000:0a:00.0: Transaction failed (op 536) These errors occur during driver load or when changing the MAC via: ip link set address Add logic to set the MAC type when sending ADD/DEL (opcodes 535/536) to the control plane. Since only one primary MAC is supported per vport, the driver only needs to send an ADD opcode when setting it. Remove the old address by calling __idpf_del_mac_filter(), which skips the message and just clears the entry from the internal list. This avoids an error on DEL as it attempts to remove an address already cleared by the preceding ADD opcode. Fixes: ce1b75d0635c ("idpf: add ptypes and MAC filter support") Reported-by: Jian Liu Signed-off-by: Emil Tantilov Reviewed-by: Aleksandr Loktionov Reviewed-by: Paul Menzel --- Changelog: v3: - Update the commit message to clarify the change in logic from ADD/DEL to just ADD in idpf_set_mac() is to avoid another case where the control plane will return an error. - s/old_address/old_mac_address/g - Refactored idpf_set_mac_type() to use ternary operator for setting the MAC type based on whether the address is primary or not. v2: - Make sure to clear the primary MAC from the internal list, following successful change. - Update the description to include the error on 536 opcode and mention the removal of the old address. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/intel-wired-lan/20250806192130.3197-1-emil.s.tantilov@intel.com/ --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c | 9 ++++++--- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_virtchnl.c | 12 ++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c index 2c2a3e85d693..513032cb5f08 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_lib.c @@ -2344,6 +2344,7 @@ static int idpf_set_mac(struct net_device *netdev, void *p) struct idpf_netdev_priv *np = netdev_priv(netdev); struct idpf_vport_config *vport_config; struct sockaddr *addr = p; + u8 old_mac_addr[ETH_ALEN]; struct idpf_vport *vport; int err = 0; @@ -2367,17 +2368,19 @@ static int idpf_set_mac(struct net_device *netdev, void *p) if (ether_addr_equal(netdev->dev_addr, addr->sa_data)) goto unlock_mutex; + ether_addr_copy(old_mac_addr, vport->default_mac_addr); + ether_addr_copy(vport->default_mac_addr, addr->sa_data); vport_config = vport->adapter->vport_config[vport->idx]; err = idpf_add_mac_filter(vport, np, addr->sa_data, false); if (err) { __idpf_del_mac_filter(vport_config, addr->sa_data); + ether_addr_copy(vport->default_mac_addr, netdev->dev_addr); goto unlock_mutex; } - if (is_valid_ether_addr(vport->default_mac_addr)) - idpf_del_mac_filter(vport, np, vport->default_mac_addr, false); + if (is_valid_ether_addr(old_mac_addr)) + __idpf_del_mac_filter(vport_config, old_mac_addr); - ether_addr_copy(vport->default_mac_addr, addr->sa_data); eth_hw_addr_set(netdev, addr->sa_data); unlock_mutex: diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_virtchnl.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_virtchnl.c index a028c69f7fdc..6330d4a0ae07 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_virtchnl.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf/idpf_virtchnl.c @@ -3765,6 +3765,16 @@ u32 idpf_get_vport_id(struct idpf_vport *vport) return le32_to_cpu(vport_msg->vport_id); } +static void idpf_set_mac_type(struct idpf_vport *vport, + struct virtchnl2_mac_addr *mac_addr) +{ + bool is_primary; + + is_primary = ether_addr_equal(vport->default_mac_addr, mac_addr->addr); + mac_addr->type = is_primary ?
