I had the same question a couple of months back. Eventually I dug it up 
manually.

As a starting point, I can tell you that to trace commands like “ovs-vsctl 
add-port”, start looking at ovs/utilities/ovs-vsctl.c. You will have a function 
called cmd_add_port().

Actually I wanna trace some commands (e.g. ovs-vsctl add-port tap0 tag=100) in 
ovs to find out the code in OVS source code which executes the command, so do 
you know what should I do?

Hi,

Please follow this link to enable debugging:

Once you do that, just start up OVS and follow through.
