When this policy is set, the kernel uses the inner layer 3 fields for multipath hash computation and falls back to the outer fields if no encapsulation was encountered. This behavior is most likely influenced by the behavior of the flow dissector, which is used for the packet dissection. The Spectrum ASIC, however, cannot fallback to outer fields if inner fields are not available. This should not result in a discrepancy from the software data path because if several flows have matching inner fields, they will tend to have matching outer fields as well. Therefore, implement this policy by enabling both outer and inner layer 3 fields for the multipath hash computation.

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.
