[PATCH net-next v5 09/10] bnge: add aRFS flow steering ndo support
From: Vikas Gupta
Date: Tue Nov 03 2026 - 07:47:44 EST
Introduce the ndo_rx_flow_steer callback (bnge_rx_flow_steer) to
support aRFS.
This callback creates an NTUPLE filter that steers matching packets
to the appropriate RX queue. The implementation dissects flow keys
from the SKB, creates an NTUPLE filter with the associated L2 filter,
inserts it into the NTUPLE hash table, and schedules the sp_task
workqueue via BNGE_RX_NTP_FLTR_SP_EVENT to program the filter
in the firmware.
Add bnge_cfg_ntp_filters() called from the periodic timer via sp_task
to handle deferred filter programming and expiration via
rps_may_expire_flow().
bnge_timer() queues aRFS aging only while NTUPLE is enabled. NTUPLE
can only be turned off with the interface closed, and
bnge_close_core() then deletes the timer and purges dynamic
aRFS filters.
Note that, if the L2 filter is freed before sp_task programs the rule,
the captured firmware id is stale. The NTUPLE alloc either fails (id
gone) or binds to a recycled id for a different filter. The rule is
then dropped, or it stays until it ages out.
