    ethtool: Support for configurable RSS hash function · 892311f6
    Eyal Perry authored
    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.
