In order to offload connections in other states besides "established" the driver offload callbacks need to have access to connection conntrack info. Flow offload intermediate representation data structure already contains that data encoded in 'cookie' field, so just reuse it in the drivers. Reject offloading IP_CT_NEW connections for now by returning an error in relevant driver callbacks based on value of ctinfo. Support for offloading such connections will need to be added to the drivers afterwards. Signed-off-by: Vlad Buslov <vladbu@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
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.
