Getting all traffic of the same flow on the same RX queue results in higher CPU cache efficiency. A NIC that supports "symmetric-xor" can achieve this RSS hash symmetry by XORing the source and destination fields and pass the values to the RSS hash algorithm. The user may request RSS hash symmetry for a specific algorithm, via: # ethtool -X eth0 hfunc symmetric-xor or turn symmetry off (asymmetric) by: # ethtool -X eth0 hfunc The specific fields for each flow type should then be specified as usual via: # ethtool -N|-U eth0 rx-flow-hash s|d|f|n Reviewed-by: Wojciech Drewek Signed-off-by: Ahmed Zaki --- Documentation/networking/scaling.rst | 15 +++++++++++++++ include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h | 12 +++++++++++- include/uapi/linux/ethtool_netlink.h | 1 + net/ethtool/ioctl.c | 4 ++-- net/ethtool/rss.c | 5 +++++ 5 files changed, 34 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/networking/scaling.rst b/Documentation/networking/scaling.rst index 03ae19a689fc..4eb50bcb9d42 100644 --- a/Documentation/networking/scaling.rst +++ b/Documentation/networking/scaling.rst @@ -44,6 +44,21 @@ by masking out the low order seven bits of the computed hash for the packet (usually a Toeplitz hash), taking this number as a key into the indirection table and reading the corresponding value. +Some NICs support symmetric RSS hashing where, if the IP (source address, +destination address) and TCP/UDP (source port, destination port) tuples +are swapped, the computed hash is the same.
