Default rules are low-priority switching rules which the hardware uses in the absence of higher-priority rules. Each representor requires a corresponding rule matching traffic from its representee VF and delivering to the PF (where a check on INGRESS_MPORT in __ef100_rx_packet() will direct it to the representor). No rule is required in the reverse direction, because representor TX uses a TX override descriptor to bypass the MAE and deliver directly to the VF. Since inserting any rule into the MAE disables the firmware's own default rules, also insert a pair of rules to connect the PF to the physical network port and vice-versa.

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.
