- Added a new API version support.
   - Added the query implementation in the ixgbevf.

Signed-off-by: Vlad Zolotarov <vladz@cloudius-systems.com>
---
New in v1 (compared to RFC):
   - Use "if-else" statement instead of a "switch-case" for a single option case
     (in ixgbevf_get_reta()).

I suspect this code is badly broken as it doesn't take several things
into account.

First the PF redirection table can have values outside of the range
supported by the VF.  This is allowed as the VF can set how many bits of
the redirection table it actually wants to use.  This is controlled via
the PSRTYPE register.  So for example the PF can be running with 4
queues, and the VF can run either in single queue or as just a pair of
queues.

Second you could compress this data much more tightly by taking
advantage of the bit widths allowed.  So for everything x540 and older
they only use a 4 bit value per entry.  That means you could
theoretically stuff 8 entries per u32 instead of just 4.  Though I am
not sure if that even really matters since we only care about the last
bit anyway since we should only support RSS for up to 2 queues on the
VFs (IRQ limitation).  You might be able to just get away with a 128b
vector containing a single bit per RSS entry since that is all the VFs
normally will use.

The third issue I see is that this set of patches seem to completely
ignore the X550.  The X550 has a much larger RETA on the PF, and I
believe it does something different for the VF in terms of RSS though I
don't recall exactly what the differences are.

Compression is nice but I think ethtool expects it in a certain format: 
one entry per byte. And since this patch is targeting the ethtool the 
output format should be as ethtool expects it to be and this is what 
this patch does. However I agree that masking the appropriate bits 
according to PSRTYPE is required. Good catch!

As I mentioned above we shouldn't compress it as u suggested (or in any 
other way) - this would make me uncompress it back in PATCH5 of this 
series... ;)

That's right - the whole patch is written based on the 82599 spec. Now 
when u mentioned it I see that ixgbe/ixgbevf driver supports 3 device 
variants: 82599, x540 and x550. I'll have to revisit their specs and 
update the series correspondingly. Thanks for catching...

The idea of compression comes into play when you consider there is
significant latency trying to get messages across the mailbox.  By
reducing the number of messages needed to get the redirection table you
should be able to significantly reduce the amount of time needed to
fetch it.  The job of compressing/expanding the values is actually
pretty straight forward when you consider all that should be needed is a
simple loop to perform some shift, and, and or operations.
