[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/tap: report on supported RSS hash functions

Tue May 8 19:07:35 CEST 2018


Report on TAP supported RSS functions as part of dev_infos_get
callback: ETH_RSS_IP, ETH_RSS_UDP and ETH_RSS_TCP.
Known limitation: TAP supports all of the above hash functions together
and not in partial combinations.
Previous to this commit RSS support was reported as none. Since the
introduction of [1] it is required that all RSS configurations will be
verified.

[1] commit 8863a1fbfc66 ("ethdev: add supported hash function check")
