Uplink representor traffic will be redirected to an empty root ft rather than directly to a direct tir or ttc table, this root ft will be empty and will be used as a link for auto-chaining with ttc table or ethtool tables in downstream patches. On load, fs core will connect uplink rep root_ft with ttc table. In case ethtool steering will be used, fs core will auto connect root_ft with the ethtool bypass tables, which will be connected with the ttc table. vport_rx_rule[uplink_rep]->root_ft->ethtool->ttc. For non-uplink representors, for simplicity root_ft will always point at ttc table, hence the replace vport_rx rule logic is removed. vport_rx_rule[non_uplink_rep]->root_ft(ttc). For now ethtool steering support can only be available on uplink rep. Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@mellanox.com> Reviewed-by: Roi Dayan <roid@mellanox.com>
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.
