> Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix shared RSS action update
> 
> The shared RSS action update was not operational due to lack of kernel driver
> support of TIR object modification.
> This commit introduces the workaround to support shared RSS action modify
> using an indirect queue table update instead of touching TIR object directly.
> Limitations: the only supported RSS property to update is queues, the rest of
> the properties ignored.
> 
> Fixes: d2046c09aa64 ("net/mlx5: support shared action for RSS")
