Feature title is "RSS hash", it can be two things,
1. "Receive Side Scaling" support
2. Provide RSS hash to application

When this document first prepared RSS hash value was always provided to
the application when RSS enabled.
So intention with this feature was "Receive Side Scaling" support, hence
'RTE_ETH_MQ_RX_RSS_FLAG' added.

Later providing RSS has to the application separated as optimization,
'RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH' & 'RTE_MBUF_F_RX_RSS_HASH' added for this
support.
What should I do for above two comments?
To tell application how to use it?

Just tried to give some context.


As the intention of this feature is "Receive Side Scaling" support, we
shouldn't reduce configuration struct to 'rss_conf.rss_hf'.

Instead perhaps can expand to:
'rte_eth_conf.rx_adv_conf.rss_conf', 'rte_eth_rss_conf'
  I just pick their common part.😁

ok, will fix it.

This should be clarified with details below, not sure if it required to
limit description to rte_flow.
But this block like rte_flow_action_rss is from rte_flow.
And ethdev ops doesn't support inner RSS.
So I think it is ok.

Yes it is supported by rte_flow, and '[uses]' information should already
clarify it.



And I guess similar confusion exist with the providing hash to user.
Need to check if rte_flow implementation puts hash to mbuf along with
doing the RSS, or if it checks 'RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH' offload,
and update below items accordingly.
Do we need to tell user how to use it here?
I feel this document is a little simple and main to list interface for
user.
In addition, it is better that the more detail about RSS should be
presented  in rte_flow features.

No, I am not suggesting to add more detail.

My concern is 'RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH' information may not be
correct, ethdev APIs checks offload flags, but does rte_flow
implementation check it?

My suggestion is double check that piece of information and fix it if
required.

Thinking twice, ethdev API or rte_flow or different ways to configure
RSS, but datapath that puts hash value to mbuf is same.
So same 'RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH' check is used for both method, and
it is OK to have it documented.
There was a check for  RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_RSS_HASH in rte_eth_dev_configure().
This offload flag depends on the RTE_ETH_MQ_RX_RSS_FLAG mode.
As far as I know, ethdev ops allows to enable RSS hash only when RTE_ETH_MQ_RX_RSS_FLAG mode is set.
But rte flow API enable RSS hash doesn't depend on this MQ mode.
So I guess that the mbuf.ol_flags:RTE_MBUF_F_RX_RSS_HASH and mbuf.rss also be set to report application when create RSS hash flow, even if application don't set RTE_ETH_MQ_RX_RSS_FLAG mode by ethdev ops.

There is an inconsistency in the documentation but I think it is good to
use '()' when documenting API, like: 'rte_eth_dev_configure()'
+1 will fix it.

This document describes features listed in the 'default.ini', so we
shouldn't have above.

And I don't think RSS hash algorithm update is a big enough feature to
list in the feature list, perhaps it can be embedded in the RSS support
block, what do you think?
Yes it is not a bit feature.
so put it to RSS hash, right?

Yes please.
