It appears that in commit
7efd79c0e689 ("bnxt_en: Add drop action
support for ntuple"), bnxt gained support for ntuple filters for packet
drops.
However, support for this does not seem to work in recent kernels or
against net-next:
% sudo ethtool -U eth0 flow-type udp4 src-ip 1.1.1.1 action -1
rmgr: Cannot insert RX class rule: Operation not supported
Cannot insert classification rule
The issue is that the existing code uses ethtool_get_flow_spec_ring_vf,
which will return a non-zero value if the ring_cookie is set to
RX_CLS_FLOW_DISC, which then causes bnxt_add_ntuple_cls_rule to return
-EOPNOTSUPP because it thinks the user is trying to set an ntuple filter
for a vf.
Fix this by first checking that the ring_cookie is not RX_CLS_FLOW_DISC.
After this patch, ntuple filters for drops can be added:
% sudo ethtool -U eth0 flow-type udp4 src-ip 1.1.1.1 action -1
Added rule with ID 0
% ethtool -n eth0
44 RX rings available
Total 1 rules
Filter: 0
Rule Type: UDP over IPv4
Src IP addr: 1.1.1.1 mask: 0.0.0.0
Dest IP addr: 0.0.0.0 mask: 255.255.255.255
TOS: 0x0 mask: 0xff
Src port: 0 mask: 0xffff
Dest port: 0 mask: 0xffff
Action: Drop
