net: Special handling for IP & MPLS. 



Special handling is needed in bareudp module for IP & MPLS as they
support more than one ethertypes.

MPLS has 2 ethertypes. 0x8847 for MPLS unicast and 0x8848 for MPLS multicast.
While decapsulating MPLS packet from UDP packet the tunnel destination IP
address is checked to determine the ethertype. The ethertype of the packet
will be set to 0x8848 if the  tunnel destination IP address is a multicast
IP address. The ethertype of the packet will be set to 0x8847 if the
tunnel destination IP address is a unicast IP address.

IP has 2 ethertypes.0x0800 for IPV4 and 0x86dd for IPv6. The version
field of the IP header tunnelled will be checked to determine the ethertype.

This special handling to tunnel additional ethertypes will be disabled
by default and can be enabled using a flag called multiproto. This flag can
be used only with ethertypes 0x8847 and 0x0800.

Special Handling

----------------

The bareudp device supports special handling for MPLS & IP as they can have

multiple ethertypes.

MPLS procotcol can have ethertypes ETH_P_MPLS_UC  (unicast) & ETH_P_MPLS_MC (multicast).

IP protocol can have ethertypes ETH_P_IP (v4) & ETH_P_IPV6 (v6).

This special handling can be enabled only for ethertypes ETH_P_IP & ETH_P_MPLS_UC

with a flag called multiproto mode.

    b) ip link delete bareudp0



2) Device Usage

2) Device creation with multiple proto mode enabled



There are two ways to create a bareudp device for MPLS & IP with multiproto mode

enabled.



    a) ip link add dev  bareudp0 type bareudp dstport 6635 ethertype 0x8847 multiproto



    b) ip link add dev  bareudp0 type bareudp dstport 6635 ethertype mpls



3) Device Usage



The bareudp device could be used along with OVS or flower filter in TC.

The OVS or TC flower layer must set the tunnel information in SKB dst field before
