[ Upstream commit 7afd49a38e73afd57ff62c8d1cf5af760c4d49c0 ]
Currently the driver accepts VLAN EtherType steering rules regardless of
the configured mask. And things might fail silently or with confusing error
messages to the user. The VLAN EtherType can only be matched by full
mask. Therefore, add a check for that.
For instance the following rule is invalid, but the driver accepts it and
ignores the user specified mask:
|root@host:~# ethtool -N enp3s0 flow-type ether vlan-etype 0x8100 \
| m 0x00ff action 0
|Added rule with ID 63
|root@host:~# ethtool --show-ntuple enp3s0
|4 RX rings available
|Total 1 rules
|
|Filter: 63
| 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: 0x8100 mask: 0x0
| VLAN: 0x0 mask: 0xffff
| User-defined: 0x0 mask: 0xffffffffffffffff
| Action: Direct to queue 0
After:
|root@host:~# ethtool -N enp3s0 flow-type ether vlan-etype 0x8100 \
| m 0x00ff action 0
|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.
