Currently ip6gre and ip6erspan share single metadata mode device, using 'collect_md_tun'. Thus, when doing: ip link add dev ip6gre11 type ip6gretap external ip link add dev ip6erspan12 type ip6erspan external RTNETLINK answers: File exists simply fails due to the 2nd tries to create the same collect_md_tun. The patch fixes it by adding a separate collect md tunnel device for the ip6erspan, 'collect_md_tun_erspan'. As a result, a couple of places need to refactor/split up in order to distinguish ip6gre and ip6erspan. First, move the collect_md check at ip6gre_tunnel_{unlink,link} and create separate function {ip6gre,ip6ersapn}_tunnel_{link_md,unlink_md}. Then before link/unlink, make sure the link_md/unlink_md is called. Finally, a separate ndo_uninit is created for ip6erspan. Tested it using the samples/bpf/test_tunnel_bpf.sh.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
