Hi, This is another iteration of the in-kernel intermediate representation (IR) that allows to express ACL hardware offloads using one unified representation from the driver side for the ethtool and the tc frontends [1] [2] [3].
In words of Michal Kubecek: "... the ethtool interface can apply four types of action to matching packets: - put into a specific queue - discard - distribute accross the queues according to a RSS context - use the rule as a wake-on-lan filter" This new round now supports for these four types, that can be mapped to the flow_rule representation. Changes from previous version: * Michal Kubecek: - Add support for FLOW_RSS flag to the ethtool_rx_flow_spec to flow_rule translator. * Venkat Duvvuru: - Fix accidental swapping of flow_stats_update() bytes and packets parameter. * kbuild robot: - Fix double kfree in error path from cls_flower, via Julian Lawal. - Fix enum type mismatch in nfp driver reported by sparse checks. Please apply, thanks.
