Amit Cohen 2dcd22023c vxlan: vxlan_core: Support FDB flushing by destination IP
Add support for flush VXLAN FDB entries by destination IP. FDB entry is
stored as {MAC, SRC_VNI} + remote. The destination IP is an attribute of
the remote. For multicast entries, the VXLAN driver stores a linked list
of remotes for a given key.

In user space, each remote is represented as a separate entry, so when
flush is sent with filter of 'destination IP', flush only the match
remotes. In case that there are no additional remotes, destroy the entry.

For example, the following are stored as one entry with several remotes:
$ bridge fdb show dev vx10
00:00:00:00:00:00 dst 192.1.1.3 self permanent
00:00:00:00:00:00 dst 192.1.1.1 self permanent
00:00:00:00:00:00 dst 192.1.1.2 self permanent
00:00:00:00:00:00 dst 192.1.1.1 vni 1000 self permanent

When user flush by destination IP x, only the relevant remotes will be
flushed:
$ bridge fdb flush dev vx10 dst 192.1.1.1

$ bridge fdb show dev vx10
00:00:00:00:00:00 dst 192.1.1.3 self permanent
00:00:00:00:00:00 dst 192.1.1.2 self permanent

README

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.
