Subbaraya Sundeep says: ==================== octeontx2-af: Introduce DMAC based switching With this patch set packets can be switched between all CGX mapped PFs and VFs in the system based on the DMAC addresses. To implement this: AF allocates high priority rules from top entry(0) in MCAM. Rules are allocated for all the CGX mapped PFs and VFs though they are not active and with no NIXLFs attached. Rules for a PF/VF will be enabled only after they are brought up. Two rules one for TX and one for RX are allocated for each PF/VF. A packet sent from a PF/VF with a destination mac of another PF/VF will be hit by TX rule and sent to LBK channel 63. The same returned packet will be hit by RX rule whose action is to forward packet to PF/VF with that destination mac. Implementation of this for 98xx is tricky since there are two NIX blocks and till now a PF/VF can install rule for an NIX0/1 interface only if it is mapped to corresponding NIX0/1 block. Hence Tx rules are modified such that TX interface in MCAM entry can be either NIX0-TX or NIX1-TX. Testing: 1. Create two VFs over PF1(on NIX0) and assign two VFs to two VMs 2. Assign ip addresses to two VFs in VMs and PF2(on NIX1) in host. 3. Assign static arp entries in two VMs and PF2. 4. Ping between VMs and host PF2. ==================== 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.
