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

42 config OPENVSWITCH_GRE
43 tristate "Open vSwitch GRE tunneling support"
44 depends on OPENVSWITCH
48 If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create GRE
51 Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.

56 tristate "Open vSwitch VXLAN tunneling support"
57 depends on OPENVSWITCH
61 If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create vxlan vport.
63 Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
67 config OPENVSWITCH_GENEVE
68 tristate "Open vSwitch Geneve tunneling support"
69 depends on OPENVSWITCH
73 If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create geneve vport.
75 Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
