[PATCH 0/4] net: qrtr: Add support for using identical MHI endpoint devices
From: Manivannan Sadhasivam via B4 Relay

Hi,
This series reworks the QRTR driver to add support for using identical MHI
endpoint devices at the same time. Currently, QRTR driver has a limitation on
using more than one identical MHI endpoint devices like QCS6490 or any Qcom
Endpoint device making use of QRTR at the same time. Because of the fact that
these devices will have the identical QRTR node id, they cannot be used at the
same time, on the same host machine.
This limitation is a blocker for running upstream kernel on devices like Qcom
based routers as they often have multiple identical WLAN Endpoint devices
connected to the Router SoC.
This series supersedes the following 2 series from Juha:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260915054207.2513877-1-juha-matti.tilli@xxxxxx
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260915074135.2567411-1-juha-matti.tilli@xxxxxx
Compared to the series from Juha, this series simplifies the multi-endpoint
support by computing a unique node id for each MHI endpoint and uses it for the
internal QRTR book keeping. This ensures that even if the MHI endpoint devices
have same node ids, the host QRTR will always use a unique node id for each one
of them.
More details can be found in the individual patches.
Testing
=======
Juha tested this series on multi ath11k setup by backporting this series to
6.6.156 kernel. I'd appreciate a formal tested-by tag from Juha and other folks
CCed to this series.
Merge Strategy
==============
Since both QRTR and ath drivers are falling under the networking tree, the whole
series can be merged through netdev tree.
