Before layer 2 forwarding, the device classifies an incoming packet to a
FID. After classification, the FID is known, but also all the attributes of
the FID, such as the router interface (RIF) via which a packet that needs
to be routed will ingress the router block.
For VLAN-unaware bridges (802.1D), the FID classification is done according
to {Port, VID}. When a RIF is added on top of a FID, all the existing
{Port, VID}->FID mappings should be updated by the software with the new
RIF. In addition, when a new mapping is added for FID which already has a
RIF, the correct RIF should be used for it.
Add a test to verify that packets can be routed after {Port, VID}->FID
classification, regardless of the order of the configuration.
# ./ingress_rif_conf_1d.sh
TEST: Add RIF for existing {port, VID}->FID mapping [ OK ]
TEST: Add {port, VID}->FID mapping for FID with a RIF [ OK ]

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.
