Offloading device drivers will mark offloaded MACsec SKBs with the corresponding SCI in the skb_metadata_dst so the macsec rx handler will know to which interface to divert those skbs, in case of a marked skb and a mismatch on the dst MAC address, divert the skb to the macsec net_device where the macsec rx_handler will be called to consider cases where relying solely on the dst MAC address is insufficient. One such instance is when using MACsec with a VLAN as an inner header, where the packet structure is ETHERNET | SECTAG | VLAN. In such a scenario, the dst MAC address in the ethernet header will correspond to the VLAN MAC address, resulting in a mismatch.

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.
