We have an issue that OVS application creates an offloaded drop rule that drops VXLAN traffic with both inner and outer header match criteria. mlx5_core driver detects correctly the inner and outer header match criteria but does not enable the inner header match criteria due to an incorrect assumption in mlx5_eswitch_add_offloaded_rule that only decap rule needs inner header criteria. Solution: Remove mlx5_esw_flow_attr's match_level and tunnel_match_level and add two new members: inner_match_level and outer_match_level. inner/outer_match_level is set to NONE if the inner/outer match criteria is not specified in the tc rule creation request. The decap assumption is removed and the code just needs to check for inner/outer_match_level to enable the corresponding bit in firmware's match_criteria_enable value.

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.
