When a foreign LHS rule (TC rule from a tunnel netdev which requests conntrack lookup) matches on inner headers or enc_key_id, these matches cannot be performed by the Outer Rule table, as the keys are only available after the tunnel type has been identified (by the OR lookup) and the rest of the headers parsed accordingly. Offload such rules with an Action Rule, using the LOOKUP_CONTROL section of the AR response to specify the conntrack and/or recirculation actions, combined with an Outer Rule which performs only the usual Encap Match duties. This processing flow, as it requires two AR lookups per packet, is less performant than OR-CT-AR, so only use it where necessary.

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.
