+ BTF_TYPE_EMIT(enum xdp_rss_type_bits);nit: Do we still need this with an extra argument?Yes, unfortunately (compiler optimizes out enum xdp_rss_type_bits). Do notice the difference xdp_rss_type_bits vs xdp_rss_hash_type. We don't need it for "xdp_rss_hash_type" but need it for "xdp_rss_type_bits".

Ah, I missed that. Then why not expose xdp_rss_type_bits? Keep xdp_rss_hash_type for internal drivers' tables, and export the enum with the bits?
Great suggestion, xdp_rss_hash_type will be internal for drivers. I will do that in V4. --Jesper
