Current HW, do not support in-built switch which will forward pkts between representee and representor. When representor is put under a bridge and pkts needs to be sent to representee, then pkts from representor are sent on a HW internal loopback channel, which again will be punted to ingress pkt parser. Now the rules that this patch installs are the MCAM filters/rules which will match against these pkts and forward them to representee. The rules that this patch installs are for basic representor <=> representee path similar to Tun/TAP between VM and Host.

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 reStructuredText 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.
