Following patches adds support for Geneve tunnel metadata mode. OVS can make use of Geneve net-device with tunnel metadata API from kernel. This also allows us to consolidate Geneve implementation from two kernel modules geneve_core and geneve to single geneve module. geneve_core module was targeted to share Geneve encap and decap code between Geneve netdevice and OVS Geneve tunnel implementation, Since OVS no longer needs these API, Geneve code can be consolidated into single geneve module. v3-v4: - Drop NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL feature. - Fix geneve device newlink check v2-v3: - make tunnel medata device and regular device mutually exclusive. - Fix Kconfig dependency for Geneve. - Fix dst-port netlink encoding. - drop changelink patch. v1-v2: - Replaced per hash table tunnel pointer (metadata enabled) with flag. - Added support for changelink. - Improve geneve device route lookup with more parameters.
Series applied, but I kind of expect some sort of fallout from this from the 0-day robot or similar :-) We'll see.
