If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Shannon Nelson [ Upstream commit 13fbcc8dc573482dd3f27568257fd7087f8935f4 ] Adding a macvlan device on top of a lowerdev that supports the xfrm offloads fails with a new regression: # ip link add link ens1f0 mv0 type macvlan RTNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted Tracing down the failure shows that the macvlan device inherits the NETIF_F_HW_ESP and NETIF_F_HW_ESP_TX_CSUM feature flags from the lowerdev, but with no dev->xfrmdev_ops API filled in, it doesn't actually support xfrm. When the request is made to add the new macvlan device, the XFRM listener for NETDEV_REGISTER calls xfrm_api_check() which fails the new registration because dev->xfrmdev_ops is NULL. The macvlan creation succeeds when we filter out the ESP feature flags in macvlan_fix_features(), so let's filter them out like we're already filtering out ~NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL. When XFRM support is added in the future, we can add the flags into MACVLAN_FEATURES. This same problem could crop up in the future with any other new feature flags, so let's filter out any flags that aren't defined as supported in macvlan.
