[PATCH net-next V2 0/2] net/mlx5e: Disable egress xdp-redirect in default

[Tariq Toukan]

Hi,

This small series disables the egress xdp-redirect feature in default.
It can still be enabled by loading a dummy XDP program.

Patches were previously submitted as part of [1].

This reduces the default number of SQs in each channel from 4 to 3, and
saves resources in device and host memory.

This also improves the latency of channel configuration operations, like
interface up (create channels), interface down (destroy channels), and
channels reconfiguration (create new set, destroy old one).

Perf numbers:
NIC: Connect-X7.
Setup: 248 channels, default mtu and rx/tx ring sizes.

Interface up + down:
Before: 2.246 secs
After:  1.798 secs (-0.448 sec)

Saves ~1.8 msec per channel.

Regards,
Tariq
