Hi,

I have been validating the userspace tunneling patches for DPDK and have 
encountered some problems.

My set-up is as follows:


       192.168.1.1/24                   192.168.1.2/24
       +------------------------+                    +------------------------+
       |       br1                          |                     |         br1 
                        |
       +------------------------+                    +------------------------+
       |       vxlan1                    |                     |         vxlan1 
                 |
       +------------------------+                    +------------------------+
       | tap1 (192.168.1.10) |                     | tap1(192.168.1.20) |
       +------------------------+                    +------------------------+
             |                                                            |
             |                                                            |
             |                                                            |
             |                                                            |
        172.168.1.1/24                                    172.168.1.2/24
       +--------------+                                    +-----------+
       |    br0             |                                    |    br0       
 |
       +--------------+                                    +-----------+
       |    dpdk0       |----------------------|    dpdk0  |
       +--------------+                                    +-----------+

       Host A                                              Host B



The dpdk devices have been connected back to back and the tap devices are used 
by VMs on either host.

The main issue I am encountering is the vswitchd appears to be crashing and I 
am unable to root cause the issue. One circumstance where the daemon crashes is 
if VTEP A is pinged from Host B and vice versa. There have been many other 
instances where the vswitchd crashes however I have been unable to trace the 
cause.
Secondly, the route added by tnl/route/add seems to silently disappear a couple 
of seconds after first adding it, as seen in tnl/route/show. However, once it's 
re-added, it appears to remain.

Kind Regards,
Ciara

Do you really intend to fall through to the TUNNEL_POP case?
