Ido Schimmel says: ==================== selftests: forwarding: Add ip6gre tests This patchset adds forwarding selftests for ip6gre. The tests can be run with veth pairs or with physical loopbacks. Patch #1 adds a new config option to determine if 'skip_sw' / 'skip_hw' flags are used when installing tc filters. By default, it is not set which means the flags are not used. 'skip_sw' is useful to ensure traffic is forwarded by the hardware data path. Patch #2 adds a new helper function. Patches #3-#4 add the forwarding selftests. Patch #5 adds a mlxsw-specific selftest to validate correct behavior of the 'decap_error' trap with IPv6 underlay. Patches #6-#8 align the corresponding IPv4 underlay test to the IPv6 one. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
