Subject: [PATCH net-next v5 01/14] vxlan: rename the drop reasons for use by other tunnels
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 21:38:57 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930183910.3151873-2-littlesmilingcloud@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260930183910.3151873-1-littlesmilingcloud@gmail.com>
VXLAN_INVALID_HDR and VXLAN_VNI_NOT_FOUND describe conditions that are
not specific to vxlan: a malformed tunnel header, and a packet for
which no tunnel device is found. The GRE receive paths converted later
in this series drop packets for the same two conditions.
Rename them to TUNNEL_INVALID_HDR and TUNNEL_NOT_FOUND and reword their
descriptions, the way VXLAN_NO_REMOTE became NO_TX_TARGET in commit
46e0ccfb88f0 ("net: vxlan: rename SKB_DROP_REASON_VXLAN_NO_REMOTE").
The numeric values stay the same; the names that the skb:kfree_skb
tracepoint and drop_monitor report change.
