l2: fix vxlan src port entropy with mpls payload l2 tunnels like vxlan, gtpu, geneva use vnet_l2_compute_flow_hash() to compute flow hash for udp src port entropy. In case of inner mpls tunnels to the same lsr ethernet src and dst macs are the same, so l2 flow hash is also the same leading to no src port entropy and the only rss queue overflow on receiver side. Fix it for all the possible vnet_l2_compute_flow_hash callers by making mpls playload hash in additon to ip4/ip6. Visible performance impact is not expected as it's only one check for mpls ethertype for common cases. Type: fix Signed-off-by: Vladislav Grishenko <themiron@yandex-team.ru> Change-Id: I69153d42fb3d7c094a670c674fac8d14039c626a
The VPP platform is an extensible framework that provides out-of-the-box production quality switch/router functionality. It is the open source version of Cisco's Vector Packet Processing (VPP) technology: a high performance, packet-processing stack that can run on commodity CPUs.
The benefits of this implementation of VPP are its high performance, proven technology, its modularity and flexibility, and rich feature set.
For more information on VPP and its features please visit the FD.io website and What is VPP? pages.
Details of the changes leading up to this version of VPP can be found under doc/releasenotes.

In general anyone interested in building, developing or running VPP should consult the VPP wiki for more complete documentation.
In particular, readers are recommended to take a look at [Pulling, Building, Running, Hacking, Pushing](https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/Pulling,_Building,_Run ning,_Hacking_and_Pushing_VPP_Code) which provides extensive step-by-step coverage of the topic.
For the impatient, some salient information is distilled below.
To install system dependencies, build VPP and then install it, simply run the build script. This should be performed a non-privileged user with sudo access from the project base directory:
./extras/vagrant/build.sh
If you want a more fine-grained approach because you intend to do some development work, the Makefile in the root directory of the source tree provides several convenience shortcuts as make targets that may be of interest. To see the available targets run:
make
The directory extras/vagrant contains a VagrantFile and supporting scripts to bootstrap a working VPP inside a Vagrant-managed Virtual Machine. This VM can then be used to test concepts with VPP or as a development platform to extend VPP. Some obvious caveats apply when using a VM for VPP since its performance will never match that of bare metal; if your work is timing or performance sensitive, consider using bare metal in addition or instead of the VM.
For this to work you will need a working installation of Vagrant. Instructions for this can be found [on the Setting up Vagrant wiki page] (https://wiki.fd.io/view/DEV/Setting_Up_Vagrant).
Several modules provide documentation, see @subpage user_doc for more end-user-oriented information. Also see @subpage dev_doc for developer notes.
Visit the VPP wiki for details on more advanced building strategies and other development notes.
