Subject: [PATCH net-next 05/15] netfilter: flowtable: add encap_proto to flow_offload_tunnel
Date: Sun, 11 Oct 2026 23:59:43 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261011215953.1334630-6-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261011215953.1334630-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
From: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo.bianconi@oss.qualcomm.com>
Add encap_proto (AF_INET or AF_INET6) to struct flow_offload_tunnel
to allow its use as part of the hash table key during flowtable entry
lookup.
This is a preliminary change to support IPv4 over IPv6 tunneling via
the flowtable infrastructure for software acceleration.
