But can't you use ethtool or devlink reset functionality somehow?

This timeout reset can be triggered by tx watchdog, .ndo_tx_timeout->ibmvnic_tx_timeout->ibmvnic_reset(adapter, VNIC_RESET_TIMEOUT); Do you know is there a way to trigger that ndo_tx_timeout from some user space tool? The FATAL reset is triggered by Firmware, quite specific for this driver. So in order to verify that, I put it in sysfs entry.

You can pick and choose which ones you implement. It'd be better to use ethtool or devlink, but I guess debugfs could be acceptable too. sysfs is a stable API, so it's definitely a no-go. > This timeout reset can be triggered by tx watchdog, > .ndo_tx_timeout->ibmvnic_tx_timeout->ibmvnic_reset(adapter, VNIC_RESET_TIMEOUT); > Do you know is there a way to trigger that ndo_tx_timeout from some > user space tool? > > The FATAL reset is triggered by Firmware, quite specific for this driver. > So in order to verify that, I put it in sysfs entry. Good question, I don't think we have a way to trigger the timeout in a generic way. My first instinct would be to use ethtool self test (ethtool_ops->self_test) to call the same function within the driver.

Add timeout and fatal reset sysfs entries so that both functions can be triggered manually the tested. Otherwise, you have to run the program for enough time and check both randomly generated resets in the long long log.
