[PATCH] net : sched: cls_api: deal with egdev path only if needed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



[ Upstream commit f8f4bef322e4600c5856911c7a632c0e3da920d6 ]

When dealing with ingress rule on a netdev, if we did fine through the
conventional path, there's no need to continue into the egdev route,
and we can stop right there.

Not doing so may cause a 2nd rule to be added by the cls api layer
with the ingress being the egdev.

For example, under sriov switchdev scheme, a user rule of VFR A --> VFR B
will end up with two HW rules (1) VF A --> VF B and (2) uplink --> VF B

Hi Greg,

The commit that introduced the problem dates to 4.15 and the fix made 
on 4.17. I see the fix was pushed to 4.16-stable but not to 4.15-stable, 
so sending it now.

Or.
