bits.
The motivation here is to eventually teach netisr and potentially
other networking subsystems a bit more about how RSS work queues / buckets
are configured so things have a hope of auto-configuring in the future.
* net/rss_config.[ch] takes care of the generic bits for doing
configuration, hash function selection, etc;
* topelitz.[ch] is now in net/ rather than netinet/;
* (and would be in libkern if it didn't directly include RSS_KEYSIZE;
that's a later thing to fix up.)
* netinet/in_rss.[ch] now just contains the IPv4 specific methods;
* and netinet/in6_rss.[ch] now just contains the IPv6 specific methods.
This should have no functional impact on anyone currently using
the RSS support.
Differential Revision: D1383
Reviewed by: gnn, jfv (intel driver bits)
if_ixl to version 1.3.0, if_ixlv to version 1.2.0
- Major change in both drivers is to add RSS support
- In ixl fix some interface speed related issues, dual
speed was not changing correctly, KR/X media was not
displaying correctly (this has a workaround until a
more robust media handling is in place)
- Add a warning when using Dell NPAR and the speed is
less than 10G
- Wrap a queue hung message in IXL_DEBUG, as it is non-fatal,
and without tuning can display excessively

from the FreeBSD network code. The flag is still kept around in the
"sys/mbuf.h" header file, but does no longer have any users. Instead
the "m_pkthdr.rsstype" field in the mbuf structure is now used to
decide the meaning of the "m_pkthdr.flowid" field. To modify the
"m_pkthdr.rsstype" field please use the existing "M_HASHTYPE_XXX"
macros as defined in the "sys/mbuf.h" header file.
This patch introduces new behaviour in the transmit direction.
Previously network drivers checked if "M_FLOWID" was set in "m_flags"
before using the "m_pkthdr.flowid" field. This check has now now been
replaced by checking if "M_HASHTYPE_GET(m)" is different from
"M_HASHTYPE_NONE". In the future more hashtypes will be added, for
example hashtypes for hardware dedicated flows.
"M_HASHTYPE_OPAQUE" indicates that the "m_pkthdr.flowid" value is
valid and has no particular type. This change removes the need for an
"if" statement in TCP transmit code checking for the presence of a
valid flowid value. The "if" statement mentioned above is now a direct
variable assignment which is then later checked by the respective
network drivers like before.
Additional notes:
- The SCTP code changes will be committed as a separate patch.
- Removal of the "M_FLOWID" flag will also be done separately.
- The FreeBSD version has been bumped.

Give the function seems to be slightly mixed with csum and tso,
make it non-fatal if we try to setup thing on a kernel without IP
support. In practise the printf on the console will probably still
make your machine unhappy.

- It was decided to change the driver name to if_ixl for FreeBSD
- This release adds the VF Driver to the tree, it can be built into
the kernel or as the if_ixlv module
- The VF driver is independent for the first time, this will be
desireable when full SRIOV capability is added to the OS.
- Thanks to my new coworker Eric Joyner for his superb work in
both the core and vf driver code.
Enjoy everyone!
