Hi all,
This patch series adds support for the Broadcom Compact Field Processor
(CFP)
which is a classification and matching engine built into most Broadcom
switches.
We support that using ethtool::rxnfc because it allows all known uses
cases from
the users I support to work, and more importantly, it allows the
selection of a
target rule index, which is later used by e.g: offloading hardware,
this is an
essential feature that I could not find being supported with cls_* for
instance.
David, this needs to be rebase against net-next/master after Vivien's changes. Will post an update tomorrow. Thanks!
