flow_dissector: Add flag to stop parsing when an IPv6 flow label is seen
Add an input flag to flow dissector on rather dissection should be stopped when a flow label is encountered. Presumably, the flow label is derived from a sufficient hash of an inner transport packet so further dissection is not needed (that is ports are not included in the flow hash). Using the flow label instead of ports has the additional benefit that packet fragments should hash to same value as non-fragments for a flow (assuming that the same flow label is used). We set this flag by default in for skb_get_hash. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
