Clear MapDA on standalone ports to bypass any ATU lookup that might
point the packet in the wrong direction. This means that all packets
are flooded using the PVT config. So make sure that standalone ports
are only allowed to communicate with the local upstream port.
Here is a scenario in which this is needed:
CPU
| .----.
.---0---. | .--0--.
| sw0 | | | sw1 |
'-1-2-3-' | '-1-2-'
'---'
- sw0p1 and sw1p1 are bridged
- sw0p2 and sw1p2 are in standalone mode
- Learning must be enabled on sw0p3 in order for hardware forwarding
to work properly between bridged ports
1. A packet with SA :aa comes in on sw1p2
1a. Egresses sw1p0
1b. Ingresses sw0p3, ATU adds an entry for :aa towards port 3
1c. Egresses sw0p0
2. A packet with DA :aa comes in on sw0p2
2a. If an ATU lookup is done at this point, the packet will be
incorrectly forwarded towards sw0p3. With this change in place,
the ATU is bypassed and the packet is forwarded in accordance
with the PVT, which only contains the CPU port.

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.
