Since there are self loopback prevention mechanisms at the VF level, offloading such rules which redirect from a VF to itself in the eswitch will break the datapath since the packets will be dropped once they go back to the vport they came from. Therefore, offloading such rules will be rejected and left to be handled by SW. Signed-off-by: Ariel Levkovich <lariel@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@nvidia.com>
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.
