Speed and duplex config fields depend on VIRTIO_NET_F_SPEED_DUPLEX
which being 63>31 depends on VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1.
Accordingly, use LE accessors for these fields.

The feature VIRTIO_NET_F_HASH_REPORT extends the
layout of the packet and requests the device to
calculate hash on incoming packets and report it
in the packet header.

RSS (Receive-side scaling) defines hash calculation
rules and decision on receive virtqueue according to
the calculated hash, provided mask to apply and
provided indirection table containing indices of
receive virqueues. The driver sends the control
command to enable multiqueue and provide parameters
for receive steering.

VIRTIO_NET_F_RSC_EXT feature bit indicates that the device
is able to provide extended RSC information. When the feature
is negotiatede and 'gso_type' field in received packet is not
GSO_NONE, the device reports number of coalesced packets in
'csum_start' field and number of duplicated acks in 'csum_offset'
field and sets VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_RSC_INFO in 'flags' field.

This feature bit can be used by hypervisor to indicate virtio_net device to
act as a standby for another device with the same MAC address.
VIRTIO_NET_F_STANDBY is defined as bit 62 as it is a device feature bit.

The ability to set speed and duplex for virtio_net is useful in various
scenarios as described here:
16032be virtio_net: add ethtool support for set and get of settings
However, it would be nice to be able to set this from the hypervisor,
such that virtio_net doesn't require custom guest ethtool commands.
Introduce a new feature flag, VIRTIO_NET_F_SPEED_DUPLEX, which allows
the hypervisor to export a linkspeed and duplex setting. The user can
subsequently overwrite it later if desired via: 'ethtool -s'.
Note that VIRTIO_NET_F_SPEED_DUPLEX is defined as bit 63, the intention
is that device feature bits are to grow down from bit 63, since the
transports are starting from bit 24 and growing up.

A draft version of the MTU Advice feature bit was specified as 25. This
bit is not within the allowed range for network device feature bits, and
should be changed to be feature bit 3 to fully comply with the spec.

This commit adds the feature bit and associated mtu device entry for the
virtio network device. When a virtio device comes up, it checks the
feature bit for the VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU feature. If such feature bit is
enabled, the driver will read the advised MTU and use it as the initial
value.

This was introduced in commit ed9ecb0415b97b5f9f91f146e1977bb372c74c6d,
but only defined if !VIRTIO_NET_NO_LEGACY. We should always define
it: easier for users to have conditional legacy code.

In particular, the virtio header always has the u16 num_buffers field.
We define a new 'struct virtio_net_hdr_v1' for this (rather than
simply calling it 'struct virtio_net_hdr', to avoid nasty type errors
if some parts of a project define VIRTIO_NET_NO_LEGACY and some don't.
Transitional devices (which can't define VIRTIO_NET_NO_LEGACY) will
have to keep using struct virtio_net_hdr_mrg_rxbuf, which has the same
byte layout as struct virtio_net_hdr_v1.

Based on patches by Rusty Russell, Cornelia Huck.
Note: more code changes are needed for 1.0 support
(due to different header size).
So we don't advertize support for 1.0 yet.

For small packets we can simplify xmit processing
by linearizing buffers with the header:
most packets seem to have enough head room
we can use for this purpose.
Since existing hypervisors require that header
is the first s/g element, we need a feature bit
for this.

Programs using virtio headers outside of kernel will no longer
build because u16 type does not exist in userspace. All user ABI
must use __u16 typedef instead.

Currently we write MAC address to pci config space byte by byte,
this means that we have an intermediate step where mac is wrong.
This patch introduced a new control command to set MAC address,
it's atomic.
VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_MAC_ADDR is a new feature bit for compatibility.

This patch adds the multiqueue (VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ) support to virtio_net
driver. VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ capable device could allow the driver to do packet
transmission and reception through multiple queue pairs and does the packet
steering to get better performance. By default, one one queue pair is used, user
could change the number of queue pairs by ethtool in the next patch.
When multiple queue pairs is used and the number of queue pairs is equal to the
number of vcpus. Driver does the following optimizations to implement per-cpu
virt queue pairs:
- select the txq based on the smp processor id.
- smp affinity hint to the cpu that owns the queue pairs.
This could be used with the flow steering support of the device to guarantee the
packets of a single flow is handled by the same cpu.
