[PATCH 0/4] RSS support for VirtioNet.

Posted by Andrew Melnychenko 4 years, 5 months ago

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

  drivers/net/virtio_net: Fixed padded vheader to use v1 with hash.
  drivers/net/virtio_net: Added basic RSS support.
  drivers/net/virtio_net: Added RSS hash report.
