Joe Stringer a175a72330 openvswitch: Add SCTP support
This patch adds support for rewriting SCTP src,dst ports similar to the
functionality already available for TCP/UDP.

Rewriting SCTP ports is expensive due to double-recalculation of the
SCTP checksums; this is performed to ensure that packets traversing OVS
with invalid checksums will continue to the destination with any
checksum corruption intact.

Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This
control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the
need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
translate it into packet processing rules.
See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
utilities.
To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the module will be
called openvswitch.
If unsure, say N.
config OPENVSWITCH_GRE
bool "Open vSwitch GRE tunneling support"
depends on INET
depends on OPENVSWITCH
depends on NET_IPGRE_DEMUX && !(OPENVSWITCH=y && NET_IPGRE_DEMUX=m)
default y
---help---
If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create GRE
vport.
Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
If unsure, say Y.
config OPENVSWITCH_VXLAN
bool "Open vSwitch VXLAN tunneling support"
depends on INET
depends on OPENVSWITCH
depends on VXLAN && !(OPENVSWITCH=y && VXLAN=m)
default y
---help---
If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create vxlan vport.
Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
If unsure, say Y.
