dev->hw_features |= NETIF_F_RXHASH;
}


vi->rss_key_size is initiated here, I wonder if there is something wrong?
Not really, the code above is never executed (in my machines). This is
because `vi->has_rss` and `vi->has_rss_hash_report` are both unset.

Looking further, vdev does not have the VIRTIO_NET_F_RSS and
VIRTIO_NET_F_HASH_REPORT features.

Also, when I run `ethtool -x`, I got:

# ethtool -x eth0
RX flow hash indirection table for eth0 with 1 RX ring(s):
Operation not supported
RSS hash key:
Operation not supported
RSS hash function:
toeplitz: on
xor: off
crc32: off

The spec saies:
Note that if the device offers VIRTIO_NET_F_HASH_REPORT, even if it
supports only one pair of virtqueues, it MUST support at least one of
commands of VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ class to configure reported hash
parameters:

If the device offers VIRTIO_NET_F_RSS, it MUST support
VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_RSS_CONFIG command per 5.1.6.5.7.1.

Otherwise the device MUST support VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_MQ_HASH_CONFIG command
per 5.1.6.5.6.4.


So if we have not anyone of `vi->has_rss` and `vi->has_rss_hash_report`,
we should return from virtnet_set_rxfh directly.
Makes sense. Although it is not clear to me how vi->has_rss_hash_report
is related here, but, I am convinced that we shouldn't do any RSS
operation if the device doesn't have the RSS feature, i.e, vi->has_rss
is false.

That said, I am thinking about something like this. How does it sound?

Should we check has_rss_hash_report?

Hi, Breno.

You can refer to the following modification. It is worth noting
that \field{rss_max_indirection_table_length} should only be
accessed if VIRTIO_NET_F_RSS is negotiated, which I have
modified below:

Could you help us?

Thanks.


if (rxfh->hfunc != ETH_RSS_HASH_NO_CHANGE &&
rxfh->hfunc != ETH_RSS_HASH_TOP)
return -EOPNOTSUPP;

Thanks!
