Currently it can happen that an mqprio qdisc is installed with num_tc 8, and this will reserve 8 (out of 8) TXQs for the network stack. Then we can attach an XDP program, and this will crop 2 TXQs, leaving just 6 for mqprio. That's not what the user requested, and we should fail it. On the other hand, if mqprio isn't requested, we still give the 8 TXQs to the network stack (with hashing among a single traffic class), but then, cropping 2 TXQs for XDP is fine, because the user didn't explicitly ask for any number of TXQs, so no expectations are violated. Simply put, the logic that mqprio should impose a minimum number of TXQs for the network never existed. Let's say (more or less arbitrarily) that without mqprio, the driver expects a minimum number of TXQs equal to the number of CPUs (on NXP LS1028A, that is either 1, or 2). And with mqprio, mqprio gives the minimum required number of TXQs.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
