Register callbacks for tc blocks of ovs internal port devices. This allows an indirect offloading rules that apply on such devices as the filter device. In case a rule is added to a tc block of an internal port, the mlx5 driver will implicitly add a matching on the internal port's unique vport metadata value to the rule's matching list. Therefore, only packets that previously hit a rule that redirects to an internal port and got the vport metadata overwritten to the internal port's unique metadata, can match on such indirect rule. Offloading of both ingress and egress tc blocks of internal ports is supported as opposed to other devices where only ingress block offloading is 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.
