[PATCH net-next 1/3] macsec: Enable devices to advertise whether they update sk_buff md_dst during offloads

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

 



Cannot know whether a Rx skb missing md_dst is intended for MACsec or not
without knowing whether the device is able to update this field during an
offload. Assume that an offload to a MACsec device cannot support updating
md_dst by default. Capable devices can advertise that they do indicate that
an skb is related to a MACsec offloaded packet using the md_dst.
