The i40e driver is modified to enable the new mqprio hardware
offload mode and factor the TCs and queue configuration by
creating channel VSIs. In this mode, the priority to traffic
class mapping and the user specified queue ranges are used
to configure the traffic classes by setting the mode option to
'channel'.
Example:
map 0 0 0 0 1 2 2 3 queues 2@0 2@2 1@4 1@5\
hw 1 mode channel
qdisc mqprio 8038: root tc 4 map 0 0 0 0 1 2 2 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
queues:(0:1) (2:3) (4:4) (5:5)
mode:channel
shaper:dcb
The HW channels created are removed and all the queue configuration
is set to default when the qdisc is detached from the root of the
device.
This patch also disables setting up channels via ethtool (ethtool -L)
when the TCs are configured using mqprio scheduler.
The patch also limits setting ethtool Rx flow hash indirection
(ethtool -X eth0 equal N) to max queues configured via mqprio.
The Rx flow hash indirection input through ethtool should be
validated so that it is within in the queue range configured via
tc/mqprio. The bound checking is achieved by reporting the current
rss size to the kernel when queues are configured via mqprio.
Example:
map 0 0 0 1 0 2 3 0 queues 2@0 4@2 8@6 11@14\
hw 1 mode channel
Cannot set RX flow hash configuration: Invalid argument

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
