Nir Dotan 3757b255bf mlxsw: core_acl_flex_actions: Return error for conflicting actions
Spectrum switch ACL action set is built in groups of three actions
which may point to additional actions. A group holds a single record
which can be set as goto record for pointing at a following group
or can be set to mark the termination of the lookup. This is perfectly
adequate for handling a series of actions to be executed on a packet.
While the SW model allows configuration of conflicting actions
where it is clear that some actions will never execute, the mlxsw
driver must block such configurations as it creates a conflict
over the single terminate/goto record value.

For a conflicting actions configuration such as:

 # tc filter add dev swp49 parent ffff: \
   protocol ip pref 10 \
   flower skip_sw dst_ip 192.168.101.1 \
   action goto chain 100 \
   action mirred egress mirror dev swp4

Where it is clear that the last action will never execute, the
mlxsw driver was issuing a warning instead of returning an error.
Therefore replace that warning with an error for this specific
case.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
