> Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH iwl-net 2/2] ice: use
> ice_update_eth_stats() for representor stats
> 
> ice_repr_get_stats64() and __ice_get_ethtool_stats() call
> ice_update_vsi_stats() on the VF's src_vsi. This always returns early
> because ICE_VSI_DOWN is permanently set for VF VSIs — ice_up() is
> never called on them since queues are managed by iavf through
> virtchnl.
> 
> In __ice_get_ethtool_stats() the original code called
> ice_update_vsi_stats() for all VSIs including representors, iterated
> over ice_gstrings_vsi_stats[] to populate the data, and then bailed
> out with an early return before the per-queue ring stats section. That
> early return was necessary because representor VSIs have no rings on
> the PF side — the rings belong to the VF driver (iavf), so accessing
> per-queue stats would be invalid.
> 
> Move the representor handling to the top of __ice_get_ethtool_stats()
> and call ice_update_eth_stats() directly to read the hardware GLV_*
> counters. This matches ice_get_vf_stats() which already uses
> ice_update_eth_stats() for the same VF VSI in legacy mode. Apply the
> same fix to ice_repr_get_stats64().
> 
> Note that ice_gstrings_vsi_stats[] contains five software ring
> counters (rx_buf_failed, rx_page_failed, tx_linearize, tx_busy,
> tx_restart) that are always zero for representors since the PF never
> processes packets on VF rings. This is pre-existing behavior unchanged
> by this patch.
