>
> Tunnel Offload API provides hardware independent, unified model
> to offload tunneled traffic. Key model elements are:
> - apply matches to both outer and inner packet headers
> during entire offload procedure;
> - restore outer header of partially offloaded packet;
> - model is implemented as a set of helper functions.
>
> Implementation details:
>
> * Create application tunnel:
> flow tunnel create <port> type <tunnel type>
> On success, the command creates application tunnel object and returns
> the tunnel descriptor. Tunnel descriptor is used in subsequent flow
> creation commands to reference the tunnel.
>
> * Create tunnel steering flow rule:
> tunnel_set <tunnel descriptor> parameter used with steering rule
> template.
>
> * Create tunnel matching flow rule:
> tunnel_match <tunnel descriptor> used with matching rule template.
>
> * If tunnel steering rule was offloaded, outer header of a partially
> offloaded packet is restored after miss.

> Example:
> test packet=
> <Ether dst=24:8a:07:8d:ae:d6 src=50:6b:4b:cc:fc:e2 type=IPv4 |
