When physical ports are reset (either through link failure or manually
toggled down and up again) that are slaved to a Linux bond with a tunnel
endpoint IP address on the bond device, not all tunnel packets arriving
on the bond port are decapped as expected.
The bond dev assigns the same MAC address to itself and each of its
slaves. When toggling a slave device, the same MAC address is therefore
offloaded to the NFP multiple times with different indexes.
The issue only occurs when re-adding the shared mac. The
nfp_tunnel_add_shared_mac() function has a conditional check early on
that checks if a mac entry already exists and if that mac entry is
global: (entry && nfp_tunnel_is_mac_idx_global(entry->index)). In the
case of a bonded device (For example br-ex), the mac index is obtained,
and no new index is assigned.
We therefore modify the conditional in nfp_tunnel_add_shared_mac() to
check if the port belongs to the LAG along with the existing checks to
prevent a new global mac index from being re-assigned to the slave port.

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.
