Re: [PATCH 0/5 net-next v4] VXLAN Group Policy Extension

From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>

Implements supports for the Group Policy VXLAN extension [0] to provide
a lightweight and simple security label mechanism across network peers
based on VXLAN. The security context and associated metadata is mapped
to/from skb->mark. This allows further mapping to a SELinux context
using SECMARK, to implement ACLs directly with nftables, iptables, OVS,
tc, etc.

The extension is disabled by default and should be run on a distinct
port in mixed Linux VXLAN VTEP environments. Liberal VXLAN VTEPs
which ignore unknown reserved bits will be able to receive VXLAN-GBP
frames.

Thomas, unfortunately Tom's vxlan RCO patches were ready before your's
in my queue so I applied his work first.  You'll have to therefore
respin this series on top of it.

Thanks.
