[ Upstream commit b5063cbe148b829e8eb97672c2cbccc058835476 ]
Currently the driver accepts VLAN TCI steering rules regardless of the
configured mask. And things might fail silently or with confusing error
messages to the user.
There are two ways to handle the VLAN TCI mask:
1. Match on the PCP field using a VLAN prio filter
2. Match on complete TCI field using a flex filter
Therefore, add checks and code for that.
For instance the following rule is invalid and will be converted into a
VLAN prio rule which is not correct:
|root@host:~# ethtool -N enp3s0 flow-type ether vlan 0x0001 m 0xf000 \
| action 1
|Added rule with ID 61
|root@host:~# ethtool --show-ntuple enp3s0
|4 RX rings available
|Total 1 rules
|
|Filter: 61
| Flow Type: Raw Ethernet
| Src MAC addr: 00:00:00:00:00:00 mask: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
| Dest MAC addr: 00:00:00:00:00:00 mask: FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
| Ethertype: 0x0 mask: 0xFFFF
| VLAN EtherType: 0x0 mask: 0xffff
| VLAN: 0x1 mask: 0x1fff
| User-defined: 0x0 mask: 0xffffffffffffffff
| Action: Direct to queue 1
After:
|root@host:~# ethtool -N enp3s0 flow-type ether vlan 0x0001 m 0xf000 \
| action 1
|rmgr: Cannot insert RX class rule: Operation not supported

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.
