When combining 2 sub_flows to a single 'merge flow' (assuming the merge is valid), the merge flow should contain the same match fields as sub_flow 1 with actions derived from a combination of sub_flows 1 and 2. This action list should have all actions from sub_flow 1 with the exception of the output action that triggered the 'implicit recirculation' by sending to an internal port, followed by all actions of sub_flow 2. Any pre-actions in either sub_flow should feature at the start of the action list. Add code to generate a new merge flow and populate the match and actions fields based on the sub_flows. The offloading of the flow is left to future patches. Signed-off-by: John Hurley <john.hurley@netronome.com> Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <simon.horman@netronome.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
