I am kind of confused now so please bear with me. ethtool either sends
"ethtool_rxfh" or "ethtool_rxnfc". AFAIK "ethtool_rxfh" is the interface
for "ethtool -X" which is used to set the RSS algorithm. But we kind of
agreed to go with "ethtool -U|-N" for symmetric-xor, and that uses
"ethtool_rxnfc" (as implemented in this series).
I have no strong preference. Sounds like Alex prefers to keep it closer
to algo, which is "ethtool_rxfh".
Do you mean use "ethtool_rxfh" instead of "ethtool_rxnfc"? how would
that work on the ethtool user interface?
I don't know what you're asking of us. If you find the code to confusing
maybe someone at Intel can help you :|
The code is straightforward. I am confused by the requirements: don't
add a new algorithm but use "ethtool_rxfh".
I'll see if I can get more help, may be I am missing something.
