ACLs that reside in the algorithmic TCAM (A-TCAM) in Spectrum-2 and
newer ASICs can share the same mask if their masks only differ in up to
8 consecutive bits. For example, consider the following filters:
# tc filter add dev swp1 ingress pref 1 proto ip flower dst_ip 192.0.2.0/24 action drop
# tc filter add dev swp1 ingress pref 1 proto ip flower dst_ip 198.51.100.128/25 action drop
The second filter can use the same mask as the first (dst_ip/24) with a
delta of 1 bit.
However, the above only works because the two filters have different
values in the common unmasked part (dst_ip/24). When entries have the
same value in the common unmasked part they create undesired collisions
in the device since many entries now have the same key. This leads to
firmware errors such as [1] and to a reduced scale.
Fix by adjusting the hash table key to only include the value in the
common unmasked part. That is, without including the delta bits. That
way the driver will detect the collision during filter insertion and
spill the filter into the circuit TCAM (C-TCAM).
Add a test case that fails without the fix and adjust existing cases
that check C-TCAM spillage according to the above limitation.

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.
