Ido Schimmel says: ==================== selftests: Add tests for VXLAN at an 802.1d bridge Petr says: This patchset adds several tests for VXLAN attached to an 802.1d bridge and fixes a related bug. First patch #1 fixes a bug in propagating SKB already-forwarded marks over veth to bridges, where they are irrelevant. This bug causes the vxlan_bridge_1d test suite from this patchset to fail as the packets aren't forwarded by br2. In patches #2 and #3, lib.sh is extended to support network namespaces. The use of namespaces is necessitated by VXLAN, which allows only one VXLAN device with a given VNI per namespace. Thus to host full topology on a single box for selftests, the "remote" endpoints need to be in namespaces. In patches #4-#6, lib.sh is extended in other ways to facilitate the following patches. In patches #7-#15, first the skeleton, and later the generic tests themselves are added. Patch #16 then adds another test that serves as a wrapper around the previous one, and runs it with a non-default port number. Patches #17 and #18 add mlxsw-specific tests. About those, Ido writes: The first test creates various configurations with regards to the VxLAN and bridge devices and makes sure the driver correctly forbids unsupported configuration and permits supported ones. It also verifies that the driver correctly sets the offload indication on FDB entries and the local route used for VxLAN decapsulation. The second test verifies that the driver correctly configures the singly linked list used to flood BUM traffic and that traffic is flooded as expected. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
