[v2,0/4] RSS support for VirtioNet.

Message

Andrew Melnichenko Jan. 17, 2022, 8 a.m. UTC

Virtio-net supports "hardware" RSS with toeplitz key.
Also, it allows receiving calculated hash in vheader
that may be used with RPS.
Added ethtools callbacks to manipulate RSS.

Technically hash calculation may be set only for
SRC+DST and SRC+DST+PORTSRC+PORTDST hashflows.
The completely disabling hash calculation for TCP or UDP
would disable hash calculation for IP.

RSS/RXHASH is disabled by default.

Changes since v1:
* refactored virtnet_set_hashflow
* refactored virtio_net_ctrl_rss
* moved hunks between patches a bit

Changes since rfc:
* code refactored
* patches reformatted
* added feature validation
