>
> This VXLAN sample simulates a VXLAN Tunnel Endpoint (VTEP) termination in

> NIC for VXLAN packet.
>
> And this sample uses the basic virtio devices management function from vHost

> traffic to/from a specific VM.
>
> In addition, this sample is also designed to show how tunneling protocols can be
> handled. For the vHost interface, we do not need to support zero copy/inter VM
> packet transfer, etc. The approaches we took would be of benefit to you because
> we put a pluggable structure in place so that the application could be easily
> extended to support a new tunneling protocol.

> 2> The port of UDP tunneling is configurable
>
> 3> Directing incoming traffic to the correct queue based on the tunnel filter type
> such as inner MAC address and VNI.

> The VNI will be assigned from a static internal table based on the us-vHost
> device ID. Each device will receive a unique device ID. The inner MAC will be

>
> 4> Decapsulation of Rx VXLAN traffic. This is a software only operation.
>
> 5> Encapsulation of Tx VXLAN traffic. This is a software only operation.

> 6> Tx outer IP, inner IP and L4 checksum offload

> 7> TSO support for tunneling packet
>
> The limitations:

> 2. There are some duplicated source codes because I used the basic virtio

> 3. Currently, only the i40e NIC is tested in the sample, but other types of NICs will

> v2 changes:
> Fixed an issue about the 'nb_ports' duplication in check_ports_num().
> Removed the inaccurate comment in main.c
> Fixed an issue about TSO offload.
>
> v3 changes:
> Changed some viriable name that don't follow coding rules.
> Removed the limitation of VXLAN packet size due to TSO support.
> Removed useless 'll_root_used' variable in vxlan_setup.c file.
> Removed defination and use of '_htons'.
