David S. Miller 907bea9cb8 Merge branch 'mlxsw-blackhole-routes'
Ido Schimmel says:

====================
mlxsw: Offload blackhole routes

Blackhole routes are routes that cause matching packets to be silently
dropped. This is in contrast to unreachable routes that generate an ICMP
host unreachable packet in response.

The driver currently programs both route types with a trap action and
lets the kernel drop matching packets. This is sub-optimal as packets
routed using a blackhole route can be directly dropped by the ASIC.

Patch #1 alters mlxsw to program blackhole routes with a discard action.

Patch #2 adds a matching test.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
