[PATCH net 5/6] net/mlx5e: Preserve tc-bw during parent changes

From: Tariq Toukan
Date: Wed Aug 13 2025 - 10:38:13 EST


From: Carolina Jubran <cjubran@xxxxxxxxxx>

When changing parent of a node/leaf with tc-bw configured, the code
saves and restores tc-bw values. However, it was reading the converted
hardware bw_share values (where 0 becomes 1) instead of the original
user values, causing incorrect tc-bw calculations after parent change.

Store original tc-bw values in the node structure and use them directly
for save/restore operations.

Fixes: cf7e73770d1b ("net/mlx5: Manage TC arbiter nodes and implement full support for tc-bw")
