Currently, when starting testpmd application without '--disable-rss' and
the number of Rx queue configured is greater than 1, ETH_MQ_RX_RSS flag
is set in port->dev_conf.rxmode.mq_mode in testpmd application, and
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH flag is set in rx_offloads
(dev->data->dev_conf.rxmode.offloads) according to the ETH_MQ_RX_RSS
flag of rxmode.mq_mode in PMD drivers.
However, DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH is not set to rx_offloads maintained
in testpmd application, this will cause the inconsistent problem that
rx_offloads is different for testpmd and PMD drivers.
Yes for DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH, application rx_offload config and PMD
one diverges, for *some* PMDs.
This is done to have the backward compatibility of the PMD behavior.
The PMDs that would like to write the provide the calculated hash value
back, overwrites the offload config to enable 'DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH'.
And does more work than user requested, this shouldn't have any side
affect.
Some doesn't provide the hash unless user explicitly requests it.
Applications shouldn't set it blindly, at least first check if PMD
supports it but even that case, unless it is needed I think HASH offload
shouldn't be requested by default.
OK, we are going to do modification to add check if PMD support
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH before setting it as below:
