Currently VIRTCHNL only allows for VLAN filtering and offloads to happen
on a single 802.1Q VLAN. Add support to filter and offload on inner,
outer, and/or inner + outer VLANs.
This is done by introducing the new capability
VIRTCHNL_VF_OFFLOAD_VLAN_V2. The flow to negotiate this new capability
is shown below.
1. VF - sets the VIRTCHNL_VF_OFFLOAD_VLAN_V2 bit in the
virtchnl_vf_resource.vf_caps_flags during the
VIRTCHNL_OP_GET_VF_RESOURCES request message. The VF should also set
the VIRTCHNL_VF_OFFLOAD_VLAN bit in case the PF driver doesn't support
the new capability.
2. PF - sets the VLAN capability bit it supports in the
VIRTCHNL_OP_GET_VF_RESOURCES response message. This will either be
VIRTCHNL_VF_OFFLOAD_VLAN_V2, VIRTCHNL_VF_OFFLOAD_VLAN, or none.
3. VF - If the VIRTCHNL_VF_OFFLOAD_VLAN_V2 capability was ACK'd by the
PF, then the VF needs to request the VLAN capabilities of the
PF/Device by issuing a VIRTCHNL_OP_GET_OFFLOAD_VLAN_V2_CAPS request.
If the VIRTCHNL_VF_OFFLOAD_VLAN capability was ACK'd then the VF
knows only single 802.1Q VLAN filtering/offloads are supported. If no
VLAN capability is ACK'd then the PF/Device doesn't support hardware
VLAN filtering/offloads for this VF.
4. PF - Populates the virtchnl_vlan_caps structure based on what it
allows/supports for that VF and sends that response via
VIRTCHNL_OP_GET_OFFLOAD_VLAN_V2_CAPS.
After VIRTCHNL_OP_GET_OFFLOAD_VLAN_V2_CAPS is successfully negotiated
the VF driver needs to interpret the capabilities supported by the
underlying PF/Device. The VF will be allowed to filter/offload the
inner 802.1Q, outer (various ethertype), inner 802.1Q + outer
(various ethertypes), or none based on which fields are set.
The VF will also need to interpret where the VLAN tag should be inserted
and/or stripped based on the negotiated capabilities.
