Layer 3 hardware stats cannot be used when the underlying interfaces are veth pairs, resulting in failures: # ./hw_stats_l3_gre.sh TEST: ping gre flat [ OK ] TEST: Test rx packets: [FAIL] Traffic not reflected in the counter: 0 -> 0 TEST: Test tx packets: [FAIL] Traffic not reflected in the counter: 0 -> 0 Fix by skipping the test when used with veth pairs.

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.
