ixgbe currently returns `EINVAL` whenever the flowhash it set by ethtool
because the ethtool code in the kernel passes a non-zero value for hfunc
that ixgbe should allow.
When ethtool is called with `ETHTOOL_SRXFHINDIR`,
`ethtool_set_rxfh_indir` will call ixgbe's set_rxfh function
with `ETH_RSS_HASH_NO_CHANGE`. This value should be accepted.
When ethtool is called with `ETHTOOL_SRSSH`, `ethtool_set_rxfh` will
call ixgbe's set_rxfh function with `rxfh.hfunc`, which appears to be
hardcoded in ixgbe to always be `ETH_RSS_HASH_TOP`. This value should
also be accepted.
Before this patch:
$ sudo ethtool -L eth1 combined 10
$ sudo ethtool -X eth1 default
Cannot set RX flow hash configuration: Invalid argument
After this patch:
$ sudo ethtool -L eth1 combined 10
$ sudo ethtool -X eth1 default
$ sudo ethtool -x eth1
RX flow hash indirection table for eth1 with 10 RX ring(s):
0: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
8: 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5
16: 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3
24: 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
