Sven Eckelmann 5b0890a972 flow_dissector: Parse batman-adv unicast headers
The batman-adv unicast packets contain a full layer 2 frame in encapsulated
form. The flow dissector must therefore be able to parse the batman-adv
unicast header to reach the layer 2+3 information.

  +--------------------+
  | ip(v6)hdr          |
  +--------------------+
  | inner ethhdr       |
  +--------------------+
  | batadv unicast hdr |
  +--------------------+
  | outer ethhdr       |
  +--------------------+

The obtained information from the upper layer can then be used by RPS to
schedule the processing on separate cores. This allows better distribution
of multiple flows from the same neighbor to different cores.

README

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

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
