====================
Adding Sparx5 IS0 VCAP support

This provides the Ingress Stage 0 (IS0) VCAP (Versatile Content-Aware
Processor) support for the Sparx5 platform.

The IS0 VCAP (also known in the datasheet as CLM) is a classifier VCAP that
mainly extracts frame information to metadata that follows the frame in the
Sparx5 processing flow all the way to the egress port.

The IS0 VCAP has 4 lookups and they are accessible with a TC chain id:

- chain 1000000: IS0 Lookup 0
- chain 1100000: IS0 Lookup 1
- chain 1200000: IS0 Lookup 2
- chain 1300000: IS0 Lookup 3
- chain 1400000: IS0 Lookup 4
- chain 1500000: IS0 Lookup 5

Each of these lookups have their own port keyset configuration that decides
which keys will be used for matching on which traffic type.

The IS0 VCAP has these traffic classifications:

- IPv4 frames
- IPv6 frames
- Unicast MPLS frames (ethertype = 0x8847)
- Multicast MPLS frames (ethertype = 0x8847)
- Other frame types than MPLS, IPv4 and IPv6

The IS0 VCAP has an action that allows setting the value of a PAG (Policy
Association Group) key field in the frame metadata, and this can be used
for matching in an IS2 VCAP rule.

This allow rules in the IS0 VCAP to be linked to rules in the IS2 VCAP.

The linking is exposed by using the TC "goto chain" action with an offset
from the IS2 chain ids.

As an example a "goto chain 8000001" will use a PAG value of 1 to chain to
a rule in IS2 Lookup 0.

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.
