Eli Britstein 97417f6182 net/mlx5e: Fix GRE key by controlling port tunnel entropy calculation 
Flow entropy is calculated on the inner packet headers and used for
flow distribution in processing, routing etc. For GRE-type
encapsulations the entropy value is placed in the eight LSB of the key
field in the GRE header as defined in NVGRE RFC 7637. For UDP based
encapsulations the entropy value is placed in the source port of the
UDP header.
The hardware may support entropy calculation specifically for GRE and
for all tunneling protocols. With commit df2ef3bff1 ("net/mlx5e: Add
GRE protocol offloading") GRE is offloaded, but the hardware is
configured by default to calculate flow entropy so packets transmitted
on the wire have a wrong key. To support UDP based tunnels (i.e VXLAN),
GRE (i.e. no flow entropy) and NVGRE (i.e. with flow entropy) the
hardware behaviour must be controlled by the driver.

Ensure port entropy calculation is enabled for offloaded VXLAN tunnels
and disable port entropy calculation in the presence of offloaded GRE
tunnels by monitoring the presence of entropy enabling tunnels (i.e
VXLAN) and entropy disabing tunnels (i.e GRE).

README 

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.
