Skip the rule according to flow arrival source, in case of RX and the source is local port skip and in case of TX and the source is uplink skip, we get this info according to the flow source hint we get from upper layers when creating the rule. This is needed because for example in case of FDB table which has a TX and RX tables and we are inserting a rule with an encap action which is only a TX action, in this case rule will fail on RX, so we can rely on the flow source hint and skip RX in such case. Until now we relied on metadata regc_0 that upper layer mapped the port in the regc_0, but the problem is that upper layer did not always use regc_0 for port mapping, so now we added support to flow source hint which upper layers will pass to SW steering when creating a rule.

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.
