mainlining shenanigans
Spectrum systems use DSCP rewrite map to update DSCP field in egressing
packets to correspond to priority that the packet has. Whether rewriting
will take place is determined at the point when the packet ingresses the
switch: if the port is in Trust L3 mode, packet priority is determined from
the DSCP map at the port, and DSCP rewrite will happen. If the port is in
Trust L2 mode, 802.1p is used for packet prioritization, and no DSCP
rewrite will happen.
The driver determines the port trust mode based on whether any DSCP
prioritization rules are in effect at given port. If there are any, trust
level is L3, otherwise it's L2. When the last DSCP rule is removed, the
port is switched to trust L2. Under that scenario, if DSCP of a packet
should be rewritten, it should be rewritten to 0.
However, when switching to Trust L2, the driver neglects to also update the
DSCP rewrite map. The last DSCP rule thus remains in effect, and packets
egressing through this port, if they have the right priority, will have
their DSCP set according to this rule.
Fix by first configuring the rewrite map, and only then switching to trust
L2 and bailing out.

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.
