Ido Schimmel 07e6a15fd3 selftests: mlxsw: vxlan_flooding_ipv6: Prevent flooding of unwanted packets 
[ Upstream commit 5e6242151d ]

The test verifies that packets are correctly flooded by the bridge and
the VXLAN device by matching on the encapsulated packets at the other
end. However, if packets other than those generated by the test also
ingress the bridge (e.g., MLD packets), they will be flooded as well and
interfere with the expected count.

Make the test more robust by making sure that only the packets generated
by the test can ingress the bridge. Drop all the rest using tc filters
on the egress of 'br0' and 'h1'.

In the software data path, the problem can be solved by matching on the
inner destination MAC or dropping unwanted packets at the egress of the
VXLAN device, but this is not currently supported by mlxsw.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
