stephen hemminger 6602d00789 vxlan: allow live mac address change
The VXLAN pseudo-device doesn't care if the mac address changes
when device is up.

Yan Burman af9b078e35 net/vxlan: Use the underlying device index when joining/leaving multicast groups
The socket calls from vxlan to join/leave multicast group aren't
using the index of the underlying device, as a result the stack uses
the first interface that is up. This results in vxlan being non functional
over a device which isn't the 1st to be up.
Fix this by providing the iflink field to the vxlan instance
to the multicast calls.

Joseph Gasparakis 0afb1666fe vxlan: Add capability of Rx checksum offload for inner packet
This patch adds capability in vxlan to identify received
checksummed inner packets and signal them to the upper layers of
the stack. The driver needs to set the skb->encapsulation bit
and also set the skb->ip_summed to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.

Joseph Gasparakis d6727fe385 vxlan: capture inner headers during encapsulation
Allow VXLAN to make use of Tx checksum offloading and Tx scatter-gather.
The advantage to these two changes is that it also allows the VXLAN to
make use of GSO.

David Stevens e4f67addf1 add DOVE extensions for VXLAN
This patch provides extensions to VXLAN for supporting Distributed
Overlay Virtual Ethernet (DOVE) networks. The patch includes:

	+ a dove flag per VXLAN device to enable DOVE extensions
	+ ARP reduction, whereby a bridge-connected VXLAN tunnel endpoint
		answers ARP requests from the local bridge on behalf of
		remote DOVE clients
	+ route short-circuiting (aka L3 switching). Known destination IP
		addresses use the corresponding destination MAC address for
		switching rather than going to a (possibly remote) router first.
	+ netlink notification messages for forwarding table and L3 switching
		misses

Changes since v2
	- combined bools into "u32 flags"
	- replaced loop with !is_zero_ether_addr()

Alexander Duyck 1ba56fb45a vxlan: Update hard_header_len based on lowerdev when instantiating VXLAN
In the event of a VXLAN device being linked to a device that has a
hard_header_len greater than that of standard ethernet we could end up with
the hard_header_len not being large enough for outgoing frames.  In order to
prevent this we should update the length when a lowerdev is provided.

Alexander Duyck 52b702ffa5 vxlan: Fix error that was resulting in VXLAN MTU size being 10 bytes too large
This change fixes an issue I found where VXLAN frames were fragmented when
they were up to the VXLAN MTU size.  I root caused the issue to the fact that
the headroom was 4 + 20 + 8 + 8.  This math doesn't appear to be correct
because we are not inserting a VLAN header, but instead a 2nd Ethernet header.
As such the math for the overhead should be 20 + 8 + 8 + 14 to account for the
extra headers that are inserted for VXLAN.

stephen hemminger 05f47d69c4 vxlan: allow configuring port range
VXLAN bases source UDP port based on flow to help the
receiver to be able to load balance based on outer header flow.

This patch restricts the port range to the normal UDP local
ports, and allows overriding via configuration.

It also uses jhash of Ethernet header when looking at flows
with out know L3 header.

stephen hemminger d342894c5d vxlan: virtual extensible lan
This is an implementation of Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network
as described in draft RFC:
  http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mahalingam-dutt-dcops-vxlan-02

The driver integrates a Virtual Tunnel Endpoint (VTEP) functionality
that learns MAC to IP address mapping.

This implementation has not been tested only against the Linux
userspace implementation using TAP, not against other vendor's
equipment.
