This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves
the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the
results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-
groovy' to 'verification-done-groovy'. If the problem still exists,
change the tag 'verification-needed-groovy' to 'verification-failed-
groovy'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will
be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how
to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Title:
  geneve overlay network on vlan interface broken with offload enabled

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in linux source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed
Status in linux source package in Groovy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [SRU Justification]

  Impact: In upstream v5.2 geneve tunnel stateless offload support was
  added to the mlx5 driver. This had some issue with VLANs where the
  VLAN ID was set by the driver even when offload support was enabled.

  Fix: Upstream (v5.11-rc3) commit
  378d3783412e38dc3a2b9d524f551c0008ea314a "net/mlx5e: Fix SWP offsets
  when vlan inserted by driver" was backported (dropping some code
  because it did not yet exist in 5.8) and verified to address the
  problem.

  Testcase: Enable geneve tunnel offload support on a mlx5(e) card over
  VLAN.

  Regression potential: The modified code path is sending packets tagged
  for VLAN(s), so outgoing traffic into VLAN(s) would most likely be
  impacted.

  Mellanox Connect-X 5 network card

  When using geneve overlay networks over a vlan interface, txvlan
  offload currently has to be disabled as it interferes with the network
  traffic causing general wonkyness.

  Mellanox engineering pointed us at:

    https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg711911.html

  as a likely fix for this issue.
