This patch adds VXLAN support for flow item/action lists validation.
The following entities are now supported:
- RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_VXLAN, contains the tunnel VNI
- RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_VXLAN_DECAP, if this action is specified
the items in the flow items list treated as outer network
parameters for tunnel outer header match. The ethernet layer
addresses always are treated as inner ones.
- RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_VXLAN_ENCAP, contains the item list to
build the encapsulation header. In current implementation the
values is the subject for some constraints:
- outer source MAC address will be always unconditionally
set to the one of MAC addresses of outer egress interface
- no way to specify source UDP port
- all abovementioned parameters are ignored if specified
in the rule, warning messages are sent to the log
Minimal tunneling support is also added. If VXLAN decapsulation
action is specified the ETH item can follow the VXLAN VNI item,
the content of this ETH item is treated as inner MAC addresses
and type. The outer ETH item for VXLAN decapsulation action
is always ignored.
