[PATCH net 3/3] net/mlx5e: Account for netdev stats in ndo_get_stats64

From: Tariq Toukan

Date: Mon Jan 26 2026 - 02:16:35 EST


From: Gal Pressman <gal@xxxxxxxxxx>

The driver's ndo_get_stats64 callback is only reporting mlx5 counters,
without accounting for the netdev stats, causing errors from the network
stack to be invisible in statistics.

Add netdev_stats_to_stats64() call to first populate the counters, then
add mlx5 counters on top, ensuring both are accounted for (where
appropriate).

Fixes: f62b8bb8f2d3 ("net/mlx5: Extend mlx5_core to support ConnectX-4 Ethernet functionality")
