openvswitch: Make metadata_dst tunnel work in IP_TUNNEL_INFO_BRIDGE mode
There is currently no support for the multicast/broadcast aspects
of VXLAN in ovs. In the datapath flow the tun_dst must specific.
But in the IP_TUNNEL_INFO_BRIDGE mode the tun_dst can not be specific.
And the packet can forward through the fdb table of vxlan devcice. In
this mode the broadcast/multicast packet can be sent through the
following ways in ovs.
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 vxlan -- set in vxlan type=vxlan \
options:key=1000 options:remote_ip=flow
ovs-ofctl add-flow br0 in_port=LOCAL,dl_dst=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, \
action=output:vxlan
bridge fdb append ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff dev vxlan_sys_4789 dst 172.168.0.1 \
src_vni 1000 vni 1000 self
bridge fdb append ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff dev vxlan_sys_4789 dst 172.168.0.2 \
src_vni 1000 vni 1000 self

Also fixup case statement in lib/odp-util.c to make the compiler happy.

Hi Wenxu,
would you mind giving this patch a review - I just want to make sure I didn't
miss anything.
Thanks,
- Greg
Looks good to me!
Thanks

Maintainers,
I submited these patches back in October 2019 and then never got further
with them. Since then the patch set is moribund I guess but I'm wondering if I
should resubmit?
Hi. Yes, it'll be great if you can re-submit at least to check that it still
applicable and up to date.
Regarding this feature (IP_TUNNEL_INFO_BRIDGE) I also reviewed the userspace
part last week, but had no reply so far. And so I'm not sure if anyone will
actually continue to work on this userspace part:

Well the kernel bits make no sense without the userspace bits. Let
me see if I can advance both. Busy with some other stuff but should get
back to this soon. I'll resubmit the kernel and the userspace patches
together and copy wenxu when I do.
- Greg
