Add new adminq commands for the driver to configure and query flow rules that are stored in the device. Flow steering rules are assigned with a location that determines the relative order of the rules. Flow rules can run up to an order of millions. In such cases, storing a full copy of the rules in the driver to prepare for the ethtool query is infeasible while querying them from the device is better. That needs to be optimized too so that we don't send a lot of adminq commands. The solution here is to store a limited number of rules/rule ids in the driver in a cache. Use dma_pool to allocate 4k bytes which lets device write at most 46 flow rules(4096/88) or 1024 rule ids(4096/4) at a time. For configuring flow rules, there are 3 sub-commands: - ADD which adds a rule at the location supplied - DEL which deletes the rule at the location supplied - RESET which clears all currently active rules in the device For querying flow rules, there are also 3 sub-commands: - QUERY_RULES corresponds to ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRULE. It fills the rules in the allocated cache after querying the device - QUERY_RULES_IDS corresponds to ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL. It fills the rule_ids in the allocated cache after querying the device - QUERY_RULES_STATS corresponds to ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLCNT. It queries the device's current flow rule number and the supported max flow rule limit Signed-off-by: Jeroen de Borst <jeroendb@google.com> Co-developed-by: Ziwei Xiao <ziweixiao@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ziwei Xiao <ziweixiao@google.com> Reviewed-by: Praveen Kaligineedi <pkaligineedi@google.com> Reviewed-by: Harshitha Ramamurthy <hramamurthy@google.com> Reviewed-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20240625001232.1476315-5-ziweixiao@google.com 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.
