      net: ethtool: add new ETHTOOL_xLINKSETTINGS API · 3f1ac7a7
      由 David Decotigny 提交于 
      This patch defines a new ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS/SLINKSETTINGS API,
handled by the new get_link_ksettings/set_link_ksettings callbacks.
This API provides support for most legacy ethtool_cmd fields, adds
support for larger link mode masks (up to 4064 bits, variable length),
and removes ethtool_cmd deprecated
fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt).

This API is deprecating the legacy ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET API and provides
the following backward compatibility properties:
 - legacy ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the
   get_settings/set_settings callbacks.
 - legacy ethtool with new get/set_link_ksettings drivers: the new
   driver callbacks are used, data internally converted to legacy
   ethtool_cmd. ETHTOOL_GSET will return only the 1st 32b of each link
   mode mask. ETHTOOL_SSET will fail if user tries to set the
   ethtool_cmd deprecated fields to
   non-0 (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt). A kernel warning is logged if
   driver sets higher bits.
 - future ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the
   get_settings/set_settings callbacks, internally converted to new data
   structure. Deprecated fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt) will be
   ignored and seen as 0 from user space. Note that that "future"
   ethtool tool will not allow changes to these deprecated fields.
 - future ethtool with new drivers: direct call to the new callbacks.

By "future" ethtool, what is meant is:
 - query: first try ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS, and revert to ETHTOOL_GSET if
   fails
 - set: query first and remember which of ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS or
   ETHTOOL_GSET was successful
   + if ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS was successful, then change config with
     ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS. A failure there is final (do not try
     ETHTOOL_SSET).
   + otherwise ETHTOOL_GSET was successful, change config with
     ETHTOOL_SSET. A failure there is final (do not try
     ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS).

The interaction user/kernel via the new API requires a small
ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS handshake first to agree on the length of the link
mode bitmaps. If kernel doesn't agree with user, it returns the bitmap
length it is expecting from user as a negative length (and cmd field is
0). When kernel and user agree, kernel returns valid info in all
fields (ie. link mode length > 0 and cmd is ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS).

Data structure crossing user/kernel boundary is 32/64-bit
agnostic. Converted internally to a legal kernel bitmap.

The internal __ethtool_get_settings kernel helper will gradually be
replaced by __ethtool_get_link_ksettings by the time the first
"link_settings" drivers start to appear. So this patch doesn't change
it, it will be removed before it needs to be changed.

      ethtool: Support for configurable RSS hash function · 892311f6
      由 Eyal Perry 提交于 
      This patch extends the set/get_rxfh ethtool-options for getting or
setting the RSS hash function.

It modifies drivers implementation of set/get_rxfh accordingly.

This change also delegates the responsibility of checking whether a
modification to a certain RX flow hash parameter is supported to the
driver implementation of set_rxfh.

User-kernel API is done through the new hfunc bitmask field in the
ethtool_rxfh struct. A bit set in the hfunc field is corresponding to an
index in the new string-set ETH_SS_RSS_HASH_FUNCS.

Got approval from most of the relevant driver maintainers that their
driver is using Toeplitz, and for the few that didn't answered, also
assumed it is Toeplitz.
