igb: Add support for adding offloaded clsflower filters
This allows filters added by tc-flower and specifying MAC addresses, Ethernet types, and the VLAN priority field, to be offloaded to the controller. This reuses most of the infrastructure used by ethtool, but clsflower filters are kept in a separated list, so they are invisible to ethtool. To setup clsflower offloading: $ tc qdisc replace dev eth0 handle 100: parent root mqprio \ num_tc 3 map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \ queues 1@0 1@1 2@2 hw 0 (clsflower offloading depends on the netword driver to be configured with multiple traffic classes, we use mqprio's 'num_tc' parameter to set it to 3) $ tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress Examples of filters: $ tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: flower \ dst_mac aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa \ hw_tc 2 skip_sw (just a simple filter filtering for the destination MAC address and steering that traffic to queue 2) $ tc filter add dev enp2s0 parent ffff: proto 0x22f0 flower \ src_mac cc:cc:cc:cc:cc:cc \ hw_tc 1 skip_sw (as the i210 doesn't support steering traffic based on the source address alone, we need to use another steering traffic, in this case we are using the ethernet type (0x22f0) to steer traffic to queue 1) Signed-off-by: Vinicius Costa Gomes <vinicius.gomes@intel.com> Tested-by: Aaron Brown <aaron.f.brown@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>
