Jakub Kicinski pointed out that we need to handle ipv6 extension headers
and to explicitly check for supported tunnel types in
.ndo_features_check().
For ipv6 extension headers, the hardware supports up to 2 ext. headers
and each must be <= 64 bytes. For tunneled packets, the supported
packets are UDP with supported VXLAN and Geneve ports, GRE, and IPIP.
v3: More improvements based on Alexander Duyck's valuable feedback -
Remove the jump lable in bnxt_features_check() and restructure it
so that the TCP/UDP is check is consolidated in bnxt_exthdr_check().
v2: Add missing step to check inner ipv6 header for UDP and GRE tunnels.
Check TCP/UDP next header after skipping ipv6 ext headers for
non-tunneled packets and for inner ipv6.
(Both feedback from Alexander Duyck)

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.
