The devmem TCP requires the hds-thresh value to be 0, but it doesn't change it automatically. Therefore, make configure_headersplit() sets hds-thresh value to 0.

Why call ethtool_rings_set again here? Can we move ethtool_rings_set_req_set_hds_thresh to be after ethtool_rings_set_req_set_tcp_data_split ?

I think tcp-data-split will fail if a driver doesn't support hds-thresh, even if it supports tcp-data-split. So, I separated them.

Sorry for going back and forth on this, but in this case your v1 is better (maybe improve it by not printing an error for 'not supported' errno). And will probably better be suited for Jakub's suggestion of adding undo.

I don't see any undoing of the configuration :( The selftest should leave the system in the state that it started. We should either add some code to undo at shutdown or (preferably) move the logic to the Python script where we can handle this more cleanly with defer().

Okay, I understand it. I will fix this in the next version.
Thanks a lot! Taehee Yoo

I'm sure you're aware but this test in general doesn't aim to undo any of it's configuration AFAIR :( that includes ethtool tcp-data-split, -X, -N and -L. Sorry about that.
I wonder if you want this series to clean that up completely such that all configurations are cleaned up, or if you're asking Taehee to only clean up the hds-thres configuration for now.
Also, sorry for the late reply, but FWIW, I prefer the configuration cleanup to be in ncdevmem itself. We use it outside of the ksft to run stress tests, and folks are going to copy-paste ncdevmem for their applications, so having it be as nice as possible is a plus. But if you feel strongly about doing this outside of ncdevmem.c itself I don't mind that much.

Just the hds-thrs config for now. Avoid adding more problems.

Stan & Bobby added devmem support to kperf I think that's a better choice for stress testing: https://github.com/facebookexperimental/kperf selftests are for testing the kernel, in the context of upstream CIs. The experience with netdevsim teaches me that having "out of tree" use cases as an explicit goal is a road to nowhere.
