Re: [PATCH net-next] hyperv: Add support for Virtual Receive Side Scaling (vRSS)

I posted an implementation of library functions for Toeplitz (see
[PATCH 1/2] net: Toeplitz library functions).  This includes some
pre-computation of the table to get reasonable performance in the
host. Please take a look.

On the other hand, if you're computing a hash in the host, do you
really need  Toeplitz, flow_dissector already supports a good hash
computation and can parse many more packets than just plain UDP/TCP.
We probably only should be doing Toeplitz in the host if we need to
match HW computed values.
