Hi,

Please may we request that commit 6e6026f2dd20 ("igb: Enable RSS for Intel I211 Ethernet Controller") be backported to the 5.4 and 5.10 LTS kernels?

The Intel i211 Ethernet Controller supports 2 Receive Side Scaling (RSS) queues, the patch corrects the issue that the i211 should not be excluded from having this feature enabled.

Best regards,

Nick

Hi all,

Now that the 5.12 kernel has released, please may we consider backporting commit 6e6026f2dd2005844fb35c3911e8083c09952c6c to both the 5.4 and 5.10 LTS kernels so that RSS starts to function with the i211?

No objections here. Please submit the backport request to stable@. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/stable-kernel-rules.html#opti...
