    mlxsw: spectrum: Add NVE packet traps · b02597d5
    Ido Schimmel authored
    The DECAP_ECN0 trap will be used to trap packets where the overlay
    packet is marked with Non-ECT, but the underlay packet is marked with
    either ECT(0), ECT(1) or CE. When trapped, such packets will be counted
    as errors by the VxLAN driver and thus provide better visibility.
    
    The NVE_ENCAP_ARP trap will be used to trap ARP packets undergoing NVE
    encapsulation. This is needed in order to support E-VPN ARP suppression,
    where the Linux bridge does not flood ARP packets through tunnel ports
    in case it can answer the ARP request itself.
    
    Note that all the packets trapped via these traps are marked with
    'offload_fwd_mark', so as to not be re-flooded by the Linux bridge
    through the ASIC ports.
