David S. Miller 2aec919f8d mlx5-updates-2021-10-29
1) Minor trivial refactoring and improvements
 2) Check for unsupported parameters fields in SW steering
 3) Support TC offload for OVS internal port, from Ariel, see below.
 
 Ariel Levkovich says:
 
 =====================
 
 Support HW offload of TC rules involving OVS internal port
 device type as the filter device or the destination
 device.
 
 The support is for flows which explicitly use the internal
 port as source or destination device as well as indirect offload
 for flows performing tunnel set or unset via a tunnel device
 and the internal port is the tunnel overlay device.
 
 Since flows with internal port as source port are added
 as egress rules while redirecting to internal port is done
 as an ingress redirect, the series introduces the necessary
 changes in mlx5_core driver to support the new types of flows
 and actions.

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.
