mlx5 flow hash field retrieval and set only worked on the default
RSS context as of commit f01cc58c18 ("net/mlx5e: Support multiple RSS
contexts"), not custom RSS contexts.
For example, before this patch attempting to retrieve the flow hash fields
for RSS context 1 fails:
$ sudo ethtool -u eth1 rx-flow-hash tcp4 context 1
Cannot get RX network flow hashing options: Invalid argument
This patch fixes getting and setting the flow hash fields for contexts
other than the default context.
Getting the flow hash fields for RSS context 1:
$ sudo ethtool -u eth1 rx-flow-hash tcp4 context 1
For RSS context 1:
TCP over IPV4 flows use these fields for computing Hash flow key:
IP DA
Now, setting the flash hash fields to a custom value:
$ sudo ethtool -U eth1 rx-flow-hash tcp4 sdfn context 1
And retrieving them again:
$ sudo ethtool -u eth1 rx-flow-hash tcp4 context 1
For RSS context 1:
TCP over IPV4 flows use these fields for computing Hash flow key:
IP SA
IP DA
L4 bytes 0 & 1 [TCP/UDP src port]
L4 bytes 2 & 3 [TCP/UDP dst port]

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.
