Merge branch 'mlxsw-Offload-TC-action-pedit-munge-dsfield'



Ido Schimmel says:

====================
mlxsw: Offload TC action pedit munge dsfield

Petr says:

The Spectrum switches allow packet prioritization based on DSCP on ingress,
and update of DSCP on egress. This is configured through the DCB APP rules.
For some use cases, assigning a custom DSCP value based on an ACL match is
a better tool. To that end, offload FLOW_ACTION_MANGLE to permit changing
of dsfield as a whole, or DSCP and ECN values in isolation.

After fixing a commentary nit in patch #1, and mlxsw naming in patch #2,
patches #3 and #4 add the offload to mlxsw.

Patch #5 adds a forwarding selftest for pedit dsfield, applicable to SW as
well as HW datapaths. Patch #6 adds a mlxsw-specific test to verify DSCP
rewrite due to DCB APP rules is not performed on pedited packets.

The tests only cover IPv4 dsfield setting. We have tests for IPv6 as well,
but would like to postpone their contribution until the corresponding
iproute patches have been accepted.
