Subject: [net-next-2.6 PATCH 4/5] ixgbe: Add Flow Director configuration support as a mod parameter
Date: Wed, 06 Jan 2010 20:49:29 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100107044928.28605.62132.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100107044741.28605.31414.stgit@localhost.localdomain>
From: PJ Waskiewicz <peter.p.waskiewicz.jr@intel.com>
This patch adds the ability to change the Flow Director behavior in
ixgbe through a module parameter. ixgbe, on 82599 hardware, can support
hash-based or perfect-based filtering. It currently uses hash-based, and
should have a knob to enable perfect-based filtering.
This will be used in conjunction with the ethtool n-tuple filter
programming support.
