Subject: [PATCH net-next RESENT v3] ethtool: ice: Support for RSS settings to GTP from ethtool

This is a patch that enables RSS functionality for GTP packets using ethtool.

A user can include her TEID and make RSS work for GTP-U over IPv4 by doing the following:
`ethtool -N ens3 rx-flow-hash gtpu4 sde`

In addition to gtpu(4|6), we now support gtpc(4|6),gtpc(4|6)t,gtpu(4|6)e,gtpu(4|6)u, and gtpu(4|6)d.

gtpc(4|6): Used for GTP-C in IPv4 and IPv6, where the GTP header format does not include a TEID.
gtpc(4|6)t: Used for GTP-C in IPv4 and IPv6, with a GTP header format that includes a TEID.
gtpu(4|6): Used for GTP-U in both IPv4 and IPv6 scenarios.
gtpu(4|6)e: Used for GTP-U with extended headers in both IPv4 and IPv6.
gtpu(4|6)u: Used when the PSC (PDU session container) in the GTP-U extended header includes Uplink, applicable to both IPv4 and IPv6.
gtpu(4|6)d: Used when the PSC in the GTP-U extended header includes Downlink, for both IPv4 and IPv6.

GTP generates a flow that includes an ID called TEID to identify the tunnel. This tunnel is created for each UE (User Equipment).By performing RSS based on this flow, it is possible to apply RSS for each communication unit from the UE.Without this, RSS would only be effective within the range of IP addresses.
For instance, the PGW can only perform RSS within the IP range of the SGW.Problematic from a load distribution perspective, especially if there's a bias in the terminals connected to a particular base station.This case can be solved by using this patch.

(I have resent the submission after making revisions based on Paul's advice.)
Sorry for the delay.
I've been swamped with other work and fell behind.
Since Harald has been supportive of the basic structure in the previous patch review, I've kept it largely unchanged but added some comments and documentation.
I would appreciate it if you could review it again.

Do I understand correctly that all gtpu* include TEID? Maybe write it here.

It would be nice to see a link to the patch that added GTP and 'e' flag support
to ethtool itself ("ethtool: add support for rx-flow-hash gtp").

Please wrap all text to 80 columns and add missing spaces after ',' and '.'.

gtpc(4|6) doesn't include TEID, so what is its purpose?
s/TEID(4byte)/TEID (4bytes)/
Also, I think two newlines should remain here.

I'm a bit confused... I thought GTPC_V4_FLOW doesn't have TEID, and
GTPC_TEID_V4_FLOW does. So why do we set ICE_FLOW_SEG_HDR_GTPC_TEID here, and
why is GTPC_TEID_V4_FLOW missing from this switch case? It also seems to be
missing from ice_parse_hash_flds().

Hi Marcin-san
Thanks for your review!

Yes, that's correct.

> It would be nice to see a link to the patch that added GTP and 'e' flag support
to ethtool itself ("ethtool: add support for rx-flow-hash gtp").
I will send you the link.
The one I sent earlier was outdated, so I've updated it to match this patch.
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/[email protected]/

> gtpc(4|6) doesn't include TEID, so what is its purpose?
In GTPC communication, there is no TEID in the CSR (Create Session Request).
Therefore, there are cases of GTPC that do not include TEID.

> s/TEID(4byte)/TEID (4bytes)/
> Also, I think two newlines should remain here.
I will correct the TEID notation in the next patch!

Oh, sorry about that! It seems I accidentally included the wrong thing
during the rebase process.
I will correct it in the next patch.

> What do you mean by "from before"? The GTP* defines above?
I apologize for the unclear writing.
By "the difference from before," I specifically meant the difference
from GTPU_EH_V(4|6)_FLOW.
The PSC included in the Extension Header distinguishes between UL/DL.
By using this option, it becomes possible to process including UL/DL.

Marcin-san, thank you very much for your feedback! I will reflect your
comments in the next patch.

This tunnel is created for each UE (User Equipment).By performing RSS based on this flow, it is possible to apply RSS for each communication unit from the UE.Without this, RSS would only be effective within the range of IP addresses.

The way I understand it now, this patch (and the ethtool one) adds hashing on
TEID field in GTP* headers. So I wanted to ask why do we have a case (gtpc(4|6))
that doesn't include TEID? Do we hash on other fields in this header?

Hi Marcin-san
Thank you for your comment:)

I understand your question to be asking why it is necessary to have
the option to select gtpc(4|6) for RSS when it doesn't include the
TEID.

When hashing in cases where TEID is not included, it can be done with
the IMSI (telephone number) or the SeqNum of the GTPC in this header.
Essentially, it depends on the implementation, but there is a reason
for differentiation as the context is different between cases where
GTPC includes TEID and those where it does not.

Thanks,
Takeru

hi Marcin,

Disclaimer: I have no understanding of the proposed implementation here, just commenting
on this from a 3GPP protocol architecture point of view.

There are many differen GTPv2C messages, most of which contain a TEID. So it does
in general still make sense to be able to use RSS for all those other messages.

The CSR (Create Session Request) will not be able to benfit from it, but
it's just the first message initiating a dialogue between two elements
(think of it like a TCP SYN). All the follow-up messages in that
dialogue contain TEIDs and hence can benefit from RSS.

Hi Harald-san

I apologize for the delay in making further progress on this
patch.(I'm three months late...

> There are many different GTPv2C messages

Thank you for your assistance in explaining GTPC:)
