Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen says: ==================== net: flower: validate encapsulation control flags Now that all drivers properly rejects unsupported flower control flags used with FLOW_DISSECTOR_KEY_CONTROL, then time has come to add similar checks to the drivers supporting FLOW_DISSECTOR_KEY_ENC_CONTROL. There are currently just 4 drivers supporting this key, and 3 of those currently doesn't validate encapsulated control flags. Encapsulation control flags may currently be unused, but they should still be validated by the drivers, so that drivers will properly reject any new flags when they are introduced. This series adds some helper functions, and implements them in all 4 drivers. NB: It is currently discussed[1] to use encapsulation control flags for tunnel flags instead of the new FLOW_DISSECTOR_KEY_ENC_FLAGS.

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 reStructuredText 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.
