* net: ethtool: add support for symmetric-xor RSS hashAhmed Zaki2023-12-131-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Symmetric RSS hash functions are beneficial in applications that monitor both Tx and Rx packets of the same flow (IDS, software firewalls, ..etc). 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 <hash_alg> symmetric-xor or turn symmetry off (asymmetric) by: # ethtool -X eth0 hfunc <hash_alg> The specific fields for each flow type should then be specified as usual via: # ethtool -N|-U eth0 rx-flow-hash <flow_type> s|d|f|n Reviewed-by: Wojciech Drewek <wojciech.drewek@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ahmed Zaki <ahmed.zaki@intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231213003321.605376-4-ahmed.zaki@intel.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
* net: ethtool: get rid of get/set_rxfh_context functionsAhmed Zaki2023-12-131-6/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add the RSS context parameters to struct ethtool_rxfh_param and use the get/set_rxfh to handle the RSS contexts as well. This is part 2/2 of the fix suggested in [1]: - Add a rss_context member to the argument struct and a capability like cap_link_lanes_supported to indicate whether driver supports rss contexts, then you can remove *et_rxfh_context functions, and instead call *et_rxfh() with a non-zero rss_context.

* net: ethtool: pass a pointer to parameters to get/set_rxfh ethtool opsAhmed Zaki2023-12-131-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The get/set_rxfh ethtool ops currently takes the rxfh (RSS) parameters as direct function arguments. This will force us to change the API (and all drivers' functions) every time some new parameters are added. This is part 1/2 of the fix, as suggested in [1]: - First simplify the code by always providing a pointer to all params (indir, key and func); the fact that some of them may be NULL seems like a weird historic thing or a premature optimization. It will simplify the drivers if all pointers are always present. - Then make the functions take a dev pointer, and a pointer to a single struct wrapping all arguments. The set_* should also take an extack.

* ethtool: netlink: always pass genl_info to .prepare_dataJakub Kicinski2023-08-151-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We had a number of bugs in the past because developers forgot to fully test dumps, which pass NULL as info to .prepare_data. .prepare_data implementations would try to access info->extack leading to a null-deref. Now that dumps and notifications can access struct genl_info we can pass it in, and remove the info null checks.

* ethtool: add netlink attr in rss get reply only if value is not nullSudheer Mogilappagari2023-01-121-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Current code for RSS_GET ethtool command includes netlink attributes in reply message to user space even if they are null. Added checks to include netlink attribute in reply message only if a value is received from driver. Drivers might return null for RSS indirection table or hash key. Instead of including attributes with empty value in the reply message, add netlink attribute only if there is content.

* ethtool: add netlink based get rss supportSudheer Mogilappagari2022-12-051-0/+153
Add netlink based support for "ethtool -x <dev> [context x]" command by implementing ETHTOOL_MSG_RSS_GET netlink message. This is equivalent to functionality provided via ETHTOOL_GRSSH in ioctl path. It sends RSS table, hash key and hash function of an interface to user space. This patch implements existing functionality available in ioctl path and enables addition of new RSS context based parameters in future.
