19 Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
20 environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
21 expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
22 programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This
23 control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
24 particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
25 which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the
26 need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
28 The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
29 forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
30 which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
31 translate it into packet processing rules.

41 config OPENVSWITCH_GRE
42 tristate "Open vSwitch GRE tunneling support"
43 depends on OPENVSWITCH
47 If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create GRE
50 Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
54 config OPENVSWITCH_VXLAN
55 tristate "Open vSwitch VXLAN tunneling support"
56 depends on OPENVSWITCH
60 If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create vxlan vport.
62 Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
66 config OPENVSWITCH_GENEVE
67 tristate "Open vSwitch Geneve tunneling support"
68 depends on OPENVSWITCH
72 If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create geneve vport.
74 Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
