You should do the following: - First simplify the code by always providing a pointer to all params (indir, key and func); the fact that some of them may be NULL seems like a weird historic thing or a premature optimization. It will simplify the drivers if all pointers are always present. You don't have to remove the if () checks in the existing drivers. - Then make the functions take a dev pointer, and a pointer to a single struct wrapping all arguments. The set_* should also take an extack. - Add a rss_context member to the argument struct and a capability like cap_link_lanes_supported to indicate whether driver supports rss contexts, then you can remove *et_rxfh_context functions, and instead call *et_rxfh() with a non-zero rss_context. - Add your new member to the struct wrapping all params. If you just expose struct ethtool_rxfh to the drivers (a) there are fields in there drivers shouldn't touch, and (b) that struct is uAPI so we can't add netlink-only fields easily.
