patch to properly support rss option
Hello,
I am testing the Intel E810 NIC using the ice driver on both FreeBSD-12.2 and
FreeBSD-13.0. During testing, I enabled the RSS kernel configuration option so
the driver would use the system-wide standard RSS key instead of the custom ice
key. I was surprised to see even after rebooting, the driver was still using
the ice key.
My debugging led me to ice_lib.h where ice_rss.h is included. However, I don't
believe there is a prior include of ice_opts.h, so when ice_rss.h is parsed,
RSS is not defined causing ice-specific definitions to be used. I added
ice_opts.h to the include list above ice_rss.h and re-compiled.
I hit a second problem within ice_rss.h where ICE_DEFAULT_RSS_HASH_CONFIG is
only defined inside the !RSS block. I believe this is an oversight, probably
hidden by the previous bug. That variable is used in ice_lib.c so it cannot
depend on the state of the RSS option. Therefore, I moved the definition
outside of the RSS/!RSS blocks.
With these two changes, in the included patch file, I observed the ice driver
using RSS settings from the kernel, not ice-specific values. Looking at the
FreeBSD-13.0 and HEAD branches, it looks like the same problems are present.
