[PATCH 4.4 16/30] hv_netvsc: use skb_get_hash() instead of a homegrown implementation

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Mar 24 2017 - 14:13:19 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 757647e10e55c01fb7a9c4356529442e316a7c72 upstream.

Recent changes to 'struct flow_keys' (e.g commit d34af823ff40 ("net: Add
VLAN ID to flow_keys")) introduced a performance regression in netvsc
driver. Is problem is, however, not the above mentioned commit but the
fact that netvsc_set_hash() function did some assumptions on the struct
flow_keys data layout and this is wrong.

Get rid of netvsc_set_hash() by switching to skb_get_hash(). This change
will also imply switching to Jenkins hash from the currently used Toeplitz
but it seems there is no good excuse for Toeplitz to stay.
