Hi all,

I'm using OVS-DPDK of version 2.17.1 .

** 1. This is my vxlan topology **

```
### HOST-1, use ovs-dpdk


HOST-1

### start ping

ping from namespace of HOST-2, and this namespace is connect to veth0 by
veth-pair NIC, to provide a simple description, you could think I send ARP
and ICMP request into veth0.

Then these packets is vxlan encap and send to HOST-1.

Then packets is decap by HOST-1 and send to pf0hpf at last.

The pf0hpf is connect to a namespace, and its kernel stack response ARP and
ICMP request.


### megaflow of HOST-1

[root@localhost ~]# ovs-appctl dpctl/dump-flows

** 2. Then I start ovs-tcpdump on p0 port on HOST-1 **

```
[root@localhost ~]# ovs-tcpdump -i p0
dropped privs to tcpdump

### topology changes, add mip0 on br-phy, this is reasonable as ovs-tcpdump
script do this.

### Got dup ICMP reply on HOST-2's veth0, like this

64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=13 ttl=64 time=1.169 ms (DUP!)
64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=14 ttl=64 time=0.939 ms
64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=14 ttl=64 time=1.037 ms (DUP!)
64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=15 ttl=64 time=0.965 ms
```

Additional, after I stop ovs-tcpdump or link down mip0(ip link set mip0
down), there is no DUP IMCP reply.


** 3. Here I have 2 questions **

1. Why megaflow-2 on HOST-1 has two tnl_pop(2) in actions ?
2. Why there are DUP ICMP reply ?

So, Why? Thank you.
