Before this patch, when adding multiple ethtool steering rules with identical classification, the driver used to append the new destination to the already existing hw rule, which caused the hw to forward the traffic to all destinations (rx queues). Here we avoid this by setting the "no append" mlx5 fs core flag when adding a new ethtool rule.

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.
