It is not as simple as suggested.
The command "port config N add geneve X" can be repeated several times - adding another geneve port to the NIC Hardware/Firmware to recognize. As a result the NIC is configured with multiple geneve ports. On the other hand geneve_udp_port is a single variable - so whenever a new "port config" command is executed - we will override the last geneve port and forget all the precedent ones.
The port config command also has a "rm" option in addition to "add". So if we removed the last port - what will we assigned to geneve_udp_port? We need to have a small data base for managing geneve ports.
testpmd also has an option " --geneve-port=N". It should be synched with the "port config" command.
Another issue to consider is if there is a need for the suggested feature. I think the "port config" is mainly targeted for offloading. So the NIC will probably encap/decap a packet with geneve - leaving testpmd paring unneeded.
My point is that your suggestion requires an RFC before implementation.

Done in v6. I added other missing tunnel protocols (in alphabetical order) such as "gtp". Since it is more than geneve I added it to the 3rd (cleanup) commit.
