Paolo Abeni says: ==================== veth: more flexible channels number configuration XDP setups can benefit from multiple veth RX/TX queues. Currently veth allow setting such number only at creation time via the 'numrxqueues' and 'numtxqueues' parameters. This series introduces support for the ethtool set_channel operation and allows configuring the queue number via a new module parameter. The veth default configuration is not changed. Finally self-tests are updated to check the new features, with both valid and invalid arguments. This iteration is a rebase of the most recent RFC, it does not provide a module parameter to configure the default number of queues, but I think could be worthy RFC v1 -> RFC v2: - report more consistent 'combined' count - make set_channel as resilient as possible to errors - drop module parameter - but I would still consider it. - more self-tests ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
