In addition to the current multicast route actions, which include trap route action and a forward route action, add the trap-and-forward multicast route action, and implement it in the multicast routing hardware logic. To implement that, add a trap-and-forward ACL action as the last action in the route flexible action set. The used trap is the ACL2 trap, which marks the packets with offload_mr_forward_mark, to prevent the packet from being forwarded again by the kernel. Note: At that stage the offloading logic does not support trap-and-forward multicast routes. This patch adds the support only in the hardware logic.

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.
