There are systems platform information management interfaces (such as HOST2BMC) for which we cannot disable local loopback multicast traffic. Separate disable_local_lb_mc and disable_local_lb_uc capability bits so driver will not disable multicast loopback traffic if not supported. (It is expected that Firmware will not set disable_local_lb_mc if HOST2BMC is running for example.) Function mlx5_nic_vport_update_local_lb will do best effort to disable/enable UC/MC loopback traffic and return success only in case it succeeded to changed all allowed by Firmware. Adapt mlx5_ib and mlx5e to support the new cap bits.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
