Leon Romanovsky 25f23524df net/mlx5e: Rely on reqid in IPsec tunnel mode
All packet offloads SAs have reqid in it to make sure they have
corresponding policy. While it is not strictly needed for transparent
mode, it is extremely important in tunnel mode. In that mode, policy and
SAs have different match criteria.

Policy catches the whole subnet addresses, and SA catches the tunnel gateways
addresses. The source address of such tunnel is not known during egress packet
traversal in flow steering as it is added only after successful encryption.

As reqid is required for packet offload and it is unique for every SA,
we can safely rely on it only.

The output below shows the configured egress policy and SA by strongswan:

[leonro@vm ~]$ sudo ip x s
src 192.169.101.2 dst 192.169.101.1
        proto esp spi 0xc88b7652 reqid 1 mode tunnel
        replay-window 0 flag af-unspec esn

         replay_window 1, bitmap-length 1
         00000000
        crypto offload parameters: dev eth2 dir out mode packet

[leonro@064 ~]$ sudo ip x p

        dir out priority 383615 ptype main

                proto esp spi 0xc88b7652 reqid 1 mode tunnel
        crypto offload parameters: dev eth2 mode packet

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 reStructuredText 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.
