[PATCH net-next 6/8] net/mlx5: Refactor mlx5_set_msix_vec_count() SET_HCA_CAP

From: Tariq Toukan

Date: Sun May 10 2026 - 01:40:23 EST


From: Moshe Shemesh <moshe@xxxxxxxxxx>

Use mlx5_vport_set_other_func_general_cap() instead of open-coding the
SET_HCA_CAP command. This removes redundant buffer allocation and
ensures consistent use of vport-based function addressing.

mlx5_vport_set_other_func_general_cap() supports both function_id and
vhca_id based addressing, so this also enables SET_HCA_CAP for vhca_id
indexed functions which was not supported before.
