[RFC PATCH v2 0/7] tun: Introduce virtio-net hashing feature

[Akihiko Odaki <akihiko.odaki@daynix.com>]

virtio-net have two usage of hashes: one is RSS and another is hash
reporting. Conventionally the hash calculation was done by the VMM.
However, computing the hash after the queue was chosen defeats the
purpose of RSS.

Another approach is to use eBPF steering program. This approach has
another downside: it cannot report the calculated hash due to the
restrictive nature of eBPF.

Extend the steering program feature by introducing a dedicated program
type: BPF_PROG_TYPE_VNET_HASH. This program type is capable to report
the hash value and the queue to use at the same time.

This is a rewrite of a RFC patch series submitted by Yuri Benditovich that
incorporates feedbacks for the series and V1 of this series:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210112194143.1494-1-yuri.benditovich@daynix.com/

QEMU patched to use this new feature is available at:
https://github.com/daynix/qemu/tree/akihikodaki/bpf

The QEMU patches will soon be submitted to the upstream as RFC too.

V1 -> V2:
  Changed to introduce a new BPF program type.
