Hi Jakub,
I've checked the code and it looks like only nfp driver is affected:
- I added check in nfp to lookup cb_priv with
nfp_flower_indr_block_cb_priv_lookup() and call
flow_block_cb_is_busy() if cb_priv exists.
- In mlx5 en_rep.c there is already a check that indr_priv exists, so
trying to lookup block_cb->cb_indent==indr_priv is redundant.
- Switch drivers (mlxsw and ocelot) take reference to block_cb on
FLOW_BLOCK_BIND, so they should not require any modifications.
Tell me if I missed anything. Sending the patch for nfp.
Regards,
Vlad
