Commit 1c30d1836a ("mlxsw: spectrum: Enable VxLAN enslavement to
bridges") enabled the enslavement of VxLAN devices to bridges that have
mlxsw ports (or their upper) as slaves. This patch extends mlxsw to also
support VLAN-aware bridges.
The patch is similar in nature to mentioned commit, but there is one
major difference. With VLAN-aware bridges, the VxLAN device's VNI is
mapped to the VLAN that is configured as PVID and egress untagged on the
bridge port.
Therefore, the driver is extended to listen to VLAN configuration on
VxLAN devices of interest and enable / disable NVE encapsulation on the
corresponding 802.1Q FIDs.
To prevent ambiguity, the driver makes sure that a given VLAN is not
configured as PVID and egress untagged on multiple VxLAN devices. This
sanitization takes place both when a port is enslaved to a bridge with
existing VxLAN devices and when a VLAN is added to / removed from a
VxLAN device of interest.

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.
