Hi

I observed the same.
See the thread at
https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2017-July/334866.html

At least in ath9k the idea is to map the skb-priority directly to the
queues according to 802.1d.
Since ovs does this strange/undocumented offset of 0x10000 I ended up
going a different path.
I ended up using something along the line of
actions=load:1->NXM_NX_PKT_MARK[31],move:nw_tos[5..7]->NXM_NX_PKT_MARK[0..2]
And patching ath9k to map these skb-marks to the queues according to my
needs.

Matthias
