Add support for skbedit queue mapping action on receive side. This is supported only in hardware, so the skip_sw flag is enforced. This enables offloading filters for receive queue selection in the hardware using the skbedit action. Traffic arrives on the Rx queue requested in the skbedit action parameter. A new tc action flag TCA_ACT_FLAGS_AT_INGRESS is introduced to identify the traffic direction the action queue_mapping is requested on during filter addition. This is used to disallow offloading the skbedit queue mapping action on transmit side. Example: $tc filter add dev $IFACE ingress protocol ip flower dst_ip $DST_IP\ action skbedit queue_mapping $rxq_id skip_sw Reviewed-by: Sridhar Samudrala <sridhar.samudrala@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Amritha Nambiar <amritha.nambiar@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.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.
