Ariel Levkovich says: ==================== Support MPLS features in bonding and vlan net devices Netdevice HW MPLS features are not passed from device driver's netdevice to upper netdevice, specifically VLAN and bonding netdevice which are created by the kernel when needed. This prevents enablement and usage of HW offloads, such as TSO and checksumming for MPLS tagged traffic when running via VLAN or bonding interface. The patches introduce changes to the initialization steps of the VLAN and bonding netdevices to inherit the MPLS features from lower netdevices to allow the HW offloads. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
