Subject: Re: [PATCH v2,net] hv_netvsc: Fix tx_table init in rndis_set_subchannel()

Host can provide send indirection table messages anytime after RSS is
enabled by calling rndis_filter_set_rss_param(). So the host provided
table values may be overwritten by the initialization in
rndis_set_subchannel().

To prevent this problem, move the tx_table initialization before calling
rndis_filter_set_rss_param().

Applied, but there are two more problems with this code:
 - you should not reset the indirection table if it was configured by
   the user to something other than the default (use the
   netif_is_rxfh_configured() helper to check for that)

For Send indirection table (tx_table) ethtool doesn't have the option 
to set it, and it's usually provided by the host. So we always initialize 
it...
But, yes, for Receive indirection table (rx_table), I will make a fix, so 
it will be set to default only for new devices, or changing the number 
of channels; otherwise it will remain the same during operations like 
changing MTU, ringparam.

 - you should use the ethtool_rxfh_indir_default() wrapper

For rx_table, we already use it:
                rndis_device->rx_table[i] = ethtool_rxfh_indir_default(
For tx_table, I know it's the same operation (%, mod), but this wrapper 
function's name is for rx_table. Should we use it for tx_table too?

Please fix the former problem in the net tree, and after net is merged
into linux/master and net-next in a week or two please follow up with
the fix for the latter for net-next.

Sure.

Thanks,
