> Subject: [PATCH v4] public/io/netif.h: make control ring hash protocol more
> general
>
> This patch modified the control ring protocol (of which there is
> not yet an implementation) to make it more general. Most of the
> concepts are not limited to toeplitz hashing so it's best not to
> make them unnecessarily specific.
>
> Apart from changing the names of various definitions and modifying
> comments, this patch:
>
> - Adds a new control message type to select a hash algorithm.
> - Adds a reference implementation of the toeplitz hash.
> - Changes the 'toeplitz' extra info fragment into a 'hash' extra
> info fragment and replaces the octet of padding with the index of
> the algorithm that was used to create the hash value.
> - Relaxes the restriction that the mapping table has to be
> power-of-2 sized.
>
> The patch also fixes a few spelling typos noticed along the way.
