Add simple VxLAN decapsulation performance test
Measure OVS DPDK VXLAN decapsulation performance. The DUT is configured as a VTEP (VXLAN Tunnel Endpoint) which performs decapsulation of frames and sends traffic to the 2nd traffic generator port. This test is unidirectional. Recent changes: * Userguide update * Move src/dstport from L2 to L4 (conf, TCL) * Fix 'TestCase' object has no attribute '_tunnel_operation' error when running non overlay tests * Fix merge conflict * Move doc to docs/userguide/integration.rst * Add setting of DUT_NIC1_MAC and setting of other variables to docs/userguide/integration.rst Change-Id: Ia44f8888ef727831543c80f5c98c866686c5c92c JIRA: VSPERF-190 Signed-off-by: Dino Simeon Madarang <dino.simeonx.madarang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Robert Wojciechowicz <robertx.wojciechowicz@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Timo Puha <timox.puha@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Maryam Tahhan <maryam.tahhan@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Billy O Mahony <billy.o.mahony@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Martin Klozik <martinx.klozik@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Al Morton <acmorton@att.com> Reviewed-by: Brian Castelli <brian.castelli@spirent.com

+------------------------------------
+
+To run VXLAN decapsulation tests:
+
+1. Set the variables used in "Executing Tunnel encapsulation tests"
+
+2. Set IXNET_TCL_SCRIPT, VXLAN_FRAME_L2, VLXAN_FRAME_L3 and DUT_NIC1_MAC of your settings file to:
+
+ .. code-block:: console
+
+ IXNET_TCL_SCRIPT='ixnetrfc2544v2.tcl'
+
+ VXLAN_FRAME_L2 = {'srcmac':
+ '01:02:03:04:05:06',
+ 'dstmac':
+ '<DUT's NIC1 MAC>',
+ }
+
+ VXLAN_FRAME_L3 = {'proto': 'udp',
+ 'packetsize': 64,
+ 'srcip': '1.1.1.1',
+ 'dstip': '192.168.240.1',
+ }
+
+ VXLAN_FRAME_L4 = {'srcport': 4789,
+ 'dstport': 4789,
+ 'vni': VXLAN_VNI,
+ 'inner_srcmac': '01:02:03:04:05:06',
+ 'inner_dstmac': '06:05:04:03:02:01',

+ 'inner_proto': 'udp',
+ 'inner_srcport': 3000,
+ 'inner_dstport': 3001,
+ }
+
+ # The receiving NIC of VXLAN traffic
+ DUT_NIC1_MAC = '<mac address>'
+
+3. Run test:
