The previous implementation of using a pre_tun_table for decap has some limitations, causing flows to end up unoffloaded when in fact we are able to offload them. This is because the pre_tun_table does not have enough matching resolution. The next step is to instead make use of the neighbour table which already exists for the encap direction. This patch prepares for this by: - Moving nfp_tun_neigh/_v6 to main.h. - Creating two new "wrapping" structures, one to keep track of neighbour entries (previously they were send-and-forget), and another to keep track of pre_tun flows. - Create a new list in nfp_flower_priv to keep track of pre_tunnel flows - Create a new table in nfp_flower_priv to keep track of next neighbour entries - Initialising and destroying these new list/tables - Extending nfp_fl_payload->pre_tun_rule to save more information for future use.

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.
