Hi,

Is there any existing work or interest in adding accelerated RFS to
the stmmac driver?

Today stmmac only reaches the Flexible Receive Parser (FRP) through
tc-flower/tc-u32, and that path is accept/drop only.

The hardware seems to supports it, as I've confirmed on a dwmac-4.20a
part (frpsel=1) that setting the FRP entry's dma_ch_no steers a
matched flow to the chosen channel; the driver just leaves it at 0.

- Is anyone already working on this, or has it been attempted before?
(I couldn't find prior postings , apologies if I missed a thread.)
- Would this be of interest / have a realistic path to merging upstream?

Happy to do the work and send an RFC if there's interest.

Thanks,
Pedro
