Offloaded bridge FDB entries are marked with NTF_OFFLOADED. Implement a similar mechanism for VXLAN, where a given remote destination can be marked as offloaded. To that end, introduce a new event, SWITCHDEV_VXLAN_FDB_OFFLOADED, through which the marking is communicated to the vxlan driver. To identify which RDST should be marked as offloaded, an switchdev_notifier_vxlan_fdb_info is passed to the listeners. The "offloaded" flag in that object determines whether the offloaded mark should be set or cleared. When sending offloaded FDB entries over netlink, mark them with NTF_OFFLOADED.

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. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
