net: provide a per host RSS key generic infrastructure
RSS (Receive Side Scaling) typically uses Toeplitz hash and a 40 or 52 bytes
RSS key.
Some drivers use a constant (and well known key), some drivers use a random
key per port, making bonding setups hard to tune. Well known keys increase
attack surface, considering that number of queues is usually a power of two.
This patch provides infrastructure to help drivers doing the right thing.
netdev_rss_key_fill() should be used by drivers to initialize their RSS key,
even if they provide ethtool -X support to let user redefine the key later.
A new /proc/sys/net/core/netdev_rss_key file can be used to get the host
RSS key even for drivers not providing ethtool -x support, in case some
applications want to precisely setup flows to match some RX queues.
Tested:
myhost:~# cat /proc/sys/net/core/netdev_rss_key

myhost:~# ethtool -x eth0
RX flow hash indirection table for eth0 with 8 RX ring(s):
0: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
