mainlining shenanigans
b6a4ac24c1
Mirred action parsing code in parse_tc_fdb_actions() first checks if
out_dev has same parent id, and only verifies that there is a pending encap
action that was parsed before. Recent change in vxlan module made function
netdev_port_same_parent_id() to return true when called for mlx5 eswitch
representor and vxlan device created explicitly on mlx5 representor
device (vxlan devices created with "external" flag without explicitly
specifying parent interface are not affected). With call to
netdev_port_same_parent_id() returning true, incorrect code path is chosen
and encap rules fail to offload because vxlan dev is not a valid eswitch
forwarding dev. Dmesg log of error:
[ 1784.389797] devices ens1f0_0 vxlan1 not on same switch HW, can't offload forwarding
In order to fix the issue, rearrange conditional in parse_tc_fdb_actions()
to check for pending encap action before checking if out_dev has the same
parent id.

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.
