[ Upstream commit 8c5d95988c34f0aeba1f34cd5e4ba69494c90c5f ]
Octeontx2/CN10K silicon supports generating a 256-bit key per packet.
The specific fields to be extracted from a packet for key generation
are configurable via a Key Extraction (MKEX) Profile.
The AF driver scans the configured extraction profile to ensure that
fields from upper layers do not overwrite fields from lower layers in
the key.
Example Packet Field Layout:
LA: DMAC + SMAC
LB: VLAN
LC: IPv4/IPv6
LD: TCP/UDP
Valid MKEX Profile Configuration:
LA -> DMAC -> key_offset[0-5]
LC -> SIP -> key_offset[20-23]
LD -> SPORT -> key_offset[30-31]
Invalid MKEX profile configuration:
LA -> DMAC -> key_offset[0-5]
LC -> SIP -> key_offset[20-23]
LD -> SPORT -> key_offset[2-3] // Overlaps with DMAC field
In another scenario, if the MKEX profile is configured to extract
the SPI field from both AH and ESP headers at the same key offset,
the driver rejecting this configuration. In a regular traffic,
ipsec packet will be having either AH(LD) or ESP (LE). This patch
relaxes the check for the same.

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.
