ice: add a separate Rx handler for flow director commands
The "ice" driver implementation uses the control VSI to handle the flow director configuration for PFs and VFs. Unfortunately, although a separate VSI type was created to handle flow director queues, the Rx queue handler was shared between the flow director and a standard NAPI Rx handler. Such a design approach was not very flexible. First, it mixed hotpath and slowpath code, blocking their further optimization. It also created a huge overkill for the flow director command processing, which is descriptor-based only, so there is no need to allocate Rx data buffers. For the above reasons, implement a separate Rx handler for the control VSI. Also, remove from the NAPI handler the code dedicated to configuring the flow director rules on VFs. Do not allocate Rx data buffers to the flow director queues because their processing is descriptor-based only. Finally, allow Rx data queues to be allocated only for VSIs that have netdev assigned to them. This handler splitting approach is the first step in converting the driver to use the Page Pool (which can only be used for data queues). Test hints: 1. Create a VF for any PF managed by the ice driver. 2. In a loop, add and delete flow director rules for the VF, e.g.: for i in {1..128}; do q=$(( i % 16 )) ethtool -N ens802f0v0 flow-type tcp4 dst-port "$i" action "$q" done for i in {0..127}; do ethtool -N ens802f0v0 delete "$i" done Suggested-by: Maciej Fijalkowski <maciej.fijalkowski@intel.com> Suggested-by: Michal Swiatkowski <michal.swiatkowski@intel.com> Acked-by: Maciej Fijalkowski <maciej.fijalkowski@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Przemek Kitszel <przemyslaw.kitszel@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <horms@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Michal Kubiak <michal.kubiak@intel.com> Tested-by: Rafal Romanowski <rafal.romanowski@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>
