The sharing this database for secondary processes?

created flag indicates the iface is created by our code.
The VXLAN decap devices must have the specified UDP port, we can not create
multiple VXLAN devices with the same UDP port - EEXIST is returned. So, we have
to share device. One option is create device before DPDK application launch and use
these pre-created devices. Inthis case created flag is not set and VXLAN device
is not reinitialized, and not deleted.

Yes, if we did not get ifindex of device - vtep is not created, error returned.
We just can not operate w/o ifindex.

OK. Good proposal. I'll refactor the code.

Hm. Did I miss the rule. Positive #ifdef first? OK.

OK. I think we should calculate the buffer size explicitly.

Yes, I'll recheck the whole code for this issue.

ifouter is set for VXLAN encap devices. They should be attached to ifouter
and can not be shared. So, if ifouter I set - we do not use the precreated/existing
VXLAN devices. We have to create our own not shared device.

I think I'll split it in two ones - for attached and potentially shared ifaces.

Anyway, we have to return an index. If we do not return it as function result
we will need to provide some extra pointing parameter, it complicates the code.

Yes. There is a long story, I forgot to revert code to one variable after debugging.

Not always. Netlink returns the code.

We do not expect too many VXLAN devices have been created. bitmap.
