Currently during update Tx security association (SA) flow, the Tx SA active state is updated only if the Tx SA in question is the same SA that the MACsec interface is using for Tx,in consequence when the MACsec interface chose to work with this Tx SA later, where this SA for example should have been updated to active state and it was not, the relevant Tx SA HW context won't be installed, hence the MACSec flow won't be offloaded. Fix by update Tx SA active state as part of update flow regardless whether the SA in question is the same Tx SA used by the MACsec interface.

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.
