igc: Add wildcard rule support to ethtool NFC using Default Queue
Introduce support for a lowest priority wildcard (catch-all) rule in ethtool's Network Flow Classification (NFC) for the igc driver. The wildcard rule directs all unmatched network traffic, including traffic not captured by Receive Side Scaling (RSS), to a specified queue. This functionality utilizes the Default Queue feature available in I225/I226 hardware. The implementation has been validated on Intel ADL-S systems with two back-to-back connected I226 network interfaces. Testing Procedure: 1. On the Device Under Test (DUT), verify the initial statistic: $ ethtool -S enp1s0 | grep rx_q.*packets rx_queue_0_packets: 0 rx_queue_1_packets: 0 rx_queue_2_packets: 0 rx_queue_3_packets: 0 2. From the Link Partner, send 10 ARP packets: $ arping -c 10 -I enp170s0 169.254.1.2 3. On the DUT, verify the packet reception on Queue 0: $ ethtool -S enp1s0 | grep rx_q.*packets rx_queue_0_packets: 10 rx_queue_1_packets: 0 rx_queue_2_packets: 0 rx_queue_3_packets: 0 4. On the DUT, add a wildcard rule to route all packets to Queue 3: $ sudo ethtool -N enp1s0 flow-type ether queue 3 5. From the Link Partner, send another 10 ARP packets: $ arping -c 10 -I enp170s0 169.254.1.2 6. Now, packets are routed to Queue 3 by the wildcard (Default Queue) rule: $ ethtool -S enp1s0 | grep rx_q.*packets rx_queue_0_packets: 10 rx_queue_1_packets: 0 rx_queue_2_packets: 0 rx_queue_3_packets: 10 7. On the DUT, add a EtherType rule to route ARP packet to Queue 1: $ sudo ethtool -N enp1s0 flow-type ether proto 0x0806 queue 1 8. From the Link Partner, send another 10 ARP packets: $ arping -c 10 -I enp170s0 169.254.1.2 9. Now, packets are routed to Queue 1 by the EtherType rule because it is higher priority than the wildcard (Default Queue) rule: $ ethtool -S enp1s0 | grep rx_q.*packets rx_queue_0_packets: 10 rx_queue_1_packets: 10 rx_queue_2_packets: 0 rx_queue_3_packets: 10 10. On the DUT, delete all the NFC rules: $ sudo ethtool -N enp1s0 delete 63 $ sudo ethtool -N enp1s0 delete 64 11. From the Link Partner, send another 10 ARP packets: $ arping -c 10 -I enp170s0 169.254.1.2 12. Now, packets are routed to Queue 0 because the value of Default Queue is reset back to 0: $ ethtool -S enp1s0 | grep rx_q.*packets rx_queue_0_packets: 20 rx_queue_1_packets: 10 rx_queue_2_packets: 0 rx_queue_3_packets: 10 Reviewed-by: Kurt Kanzenbach <kurt@linutronix.de> Co-developed-by: Blanco Alcaine Hector <hector.blanco.alcaine@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Blanco Alcaine Hector <hector.blanco.alcaine@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Song Yoong Siang <yoong.siang.song@intel.com> Tested-by: Mor Bar-Gabay <morx.bar.gabay@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>
