This adds support for U32 filter by using an HW only feature called Flexible RX Parser. This allow us to match any given packet field with a pattern and accept/reject or even route the packet to a specific DMA channel. Right now we only support acception or rejection of frame and we only support simple rules. Though, the Parser has the flexibility of jumping to specific rules as an if condition so complex rules can be established. This is only supported in GMAC5.10+. The following commands can be used to test this code: 1) Setup an ingress qdisk: # tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress 2) Setup a filter (e.g. filter by IP): # tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: protocol ip u32 match ip \ src 192.168.0.3 skip_sw action drop In every tests performed we always used the "skip_sw" flag to make sure only the RX Parser was involved.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
