mainlining shenanigans
1c30d1836a
Enslavement of VxLAN devices to offloaded bridges was never forbidden by mlxsw, but this patch makes sure the required configuration is performed in order to allow VxLAN encapsulation and decapsulation to take place in the device. The patch handles both the case where a VxLAN device is enslaved to an already offloaded bridge and the case where the first mlxsw port is enslaved to a bridge that already has VxLAN device configured. Invalid configurations are sanitized and an error string is returned via extack. Since encapsulation and decapsulation do not occur when the VxLAN device is down, the driver makes sure to enable / disable these functionalities based on NETDEV_PRE_UP and NETDEV_DOWN events. Note that NETDEV_PRE_UP is used in favor of NETDEV_UP, as the former allows to veto the operation, if 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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
