From 0b5e8b8eeae40bae6ad7c7e91c97c3c0d0e57882 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Zhou Date: Fri, 3 Oct 2014 15:35:28 -0700 Subject: net: Add Geneve tunneling protocol driver This adds a device level support for Geneve -- Generic Network Virtualization Encapsulation. The protocol is documented at http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gross-geneve-01 Only protocol layer Geneve support is provided by this driver. Openvswitch can be used for configuring, set up and tear down functional Geneve tunnels. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou Signed-off-by: David S.
