For example:
RFC 2474: Definition of the Differentiated Services Field (DS Field) in
the IPv4 and IPv6 Headers
RFC 2475: An Architecture for Differentiated Services
RFC 2697: A Single Rate Three Color Marker
RFC 2698: A Two Rate Three Color Marker
*** RFC 2474 and RFC 2475 are more architectural issues than specific
services / functionality.
But does OVS provide RFC 2697 and RFC 2698 ... for example?
BTW, after re-reading my posting, I can see how it could easily be
misunderstood to ask if OVS supported ASIC's. That wasn't my intent.
What I'm asking is if OVS provides the same functionality as OF-DPA +
ASIC's provide, such as the RFC's listed above.
I've read posting that have asked about "integrating OF-DPA software
with the OVS code".

OVS doesn't provide any support for Broadcom's ASICs.
The current OF-DPA 2.0 spec supports the complete set of RFC for
DiffServ.
What about OVS?
What RFCs are those? What functionality do they provide?
