mainlining shenanigans
When using the device packet encapsulation offload, the device calculates an entropy value, representing the inner packet headers. The entropy field is placed inside the outer packet headers. For UDP-type encapsulations, the entropy is placed in the source port field of the UDP header. For GRE-type encapsulations, the entropy is placed in the 8 LSB of the key field in the GRE header. If the device does not recognize the encapsulation type, the entropy is not placed in the packet. Entropy setting can be controlled using PCMR register. if encapsulation offload is not used force_entropy_cap should be set to 0x0. Entropy setting is enabled/disabled using entropy_calc, and could be additionally enabled/disabled for GRE encapsulation by entropy_gre_calc. As a pre-step to automatically control the tunnel entropy, introduce the entropy fields in the PCMR register with no functional change.

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.
