Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== net: ethtool: rss: add notifications Next step on the path to moving RSS config to Netlink. With the refactoring of the driver-facing API for ETHTOOL_GRXFH/ETHTOOL_SRXFH out of the way we can move on to more interesting work. Add Netlink notifications for changes in RSS configuration. As a reminder (part) of rss-get was introduced in previous releases when input-xfrm (symmetric hashing) was added. rss-set isn't implemented, yet, but we can implement rss-ntf and hook it into the changes done via the IOCTL path (same as other ethtool-nl notifications do). Most of the series is concerned with passing arguments to notifications. So far none of the notifications needed to be parametrized, but RSS can have multiple contexts per device, and since GET operates on a single context at a time, the notification needs to also be scoped to a context. Patches 2-5 add support for passing arguments to notifications thru ethtool-nl generic infra. The notification handling itself is pretty trivial, it's mostly hooking in the right entries into the ethool-nl op tables. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/20250621171944.2619249-1-kuba@kernel.org ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250623231720.3124717-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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 reStructuredText 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.
