Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2021 07:02:38 +0300 From: Sergey Ryazanov <ryazanov.s.a@...il.com> To: Loic Poulain <loic.poulain@...aro.org>, "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net>, Jakub Kicinski <kuba@...nel.org> Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, linux-wireless@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 07/10] net: wwan: core: expand ports number limit Currently, we limit the total ports number to 256. It is quite common for PBX or SMS gateway to be equipped with a lot of modems. In now days, a modem could have 2-4 control ports or even more, what only accelerates the ports exhausing rate. To avoid facing the port number limitation issue reports, increase the limit up the maximum number of minors (i.e. up to 1 << MINORBITS).
