[dpdk-stable] patch 'net/mlx5: fix validation of VXLAN/VXLAN-GPE specs' has been queued to LTS release 18.11.9

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.9

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 06/03/20. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/e77da2c0c603d03afa91ae4c1b0eb3126dc08e6a

Thanks.

Kevin.

Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix validation of VXLAN/VXLAN-GPE specs

[ upstream commit c79ab350a8976718d477d616f06678872a29b1b2 ]

Trying to create zero spec for vni wasn't allowed, to
avoid matching all packets from previous layer (udp).
This behavior is incorrect, since VXLAN is being identified
through the outer UDP destination port.

Currently, if the user didn't specify outer UDP destination
port the PMD will automatically match only on  outer
UDP port of 4798, and if the user want to match on some none
standard port he need to specify it explicitly in the rule.

This removes the limitation of vni spec to be able to match any
vni.

Fixes: 23c1d42c7138 ("net/mlx5: split flow validation to dedicated function")
