mlx5_core_create_{cq/dct} functions are non-trivial mlx5 commands
functions. They check command execution status themselves and hide
valuable FW failure information.
For mlx5_core/eth kernel user this is what we actually want, but for a
devx/rdma user the hidden information is essential and should be propagated
up to the caller, thus we convert these commands to use mlx5_cmd_do
to return the FW/driver and command outbox status as is, and let the caller
decide what to do with it.
For kernel callers of mlx5_core_create_{cq/dct} or those who only care about
the binary status (FAIL/SUCCESS) they must check status themselves via
mlx5_cmd_check() to restore the current behavior.
err = mlx5_create_cq(in, out)
err = mlx5_cmd_check(err, in, out)
if (err)
// handle err
For DEVX users and those who care about full visibility, They will just
propagate the error to user space, and app can check if err == -EREMOTEIO,
then outbox.{status,syndrome} are valid.
API Note:
mlx5_cmd_check() must be used by kernel users since it allows the driver
to intercept the command execution status and return a driver simulated
status in case of driver induced error handling or reset/recovery flows.
