Jesper Dangaard Brouer bb3a9ed2b1 igc: Enable and fix RX hash usage by netstack 
[ Upstream commit 84214ab468 ]

When function igc_rx_hash() was introduced in v4.20 via commit 0507ef8a03
("igc: Add transmit and receive fastpath and interrupt handlers"), the
hardware wasn't configured to provide RSS hash, thus it made sense to not
enable net_device NETIF_F_RXHASH feature bit.

The NIC hardware was configured to enable RSS hash info in v5.2 via commit
2121c2712f ("igc: Add multiple receive queues control supporting"), but
forgot to set the NETIF_F_RXHASH feature bit.

The original implementation of igc_rx_hash() didn't extract the associated
pkt_hash_type, but statically set PKT_HASH_TYPE_L3. The largest portions of
this patch are about extracting the RSS Type from the hardware and mapping
this to enum pkt_hash_types. This was based on Foxville i225 software user
manual rev-1.3.1 and tested on Intel Ethernet Controller I225-LM (rev 03).

For UDP it's worth noting that RSS (type) hashing have been disabled both for
IPv4 and IPv6 (see IGC_MRQC_RSS_FIELD_IPV4_UDP + IGC_MRQC_RSS_FIELD_IPV6_UDP)
because hardware RSS doesn't handle fragmented pkts well when enabled (can
cause out-of-order). This results in PKT_HASH_TYPE_L3 for UDP packets, and
hash value doesn't include UDP port numbers. Not being PKT_HASH_TYPE_L4, have
the effect that netstack will do a software based hash calc calling into
flow_dissect, but only when code calls skb_get_hash(), which doesn't
necessary happen for local delivery.

For QA verification testing I wrote a small bpftrace prog:

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
