Hi Hiroaki KAWAI

Thanks for your prompt response. It helps me a lot :)

1. Although I do not have the clear idea about the NXM_NX_PKT_MARK, I have 
understood from my reading of the nicira extension that there is a possibility 
of packet marking. Would you please inform me specifically which openflow 
message of the nicira extension can be used to mark the data packet ?

2. Regarding the set_field action: thanks to show the second alternative 
approach. Following link also tells the same.

But, I am searching one example in which set_fieldAction command has been used 
to mark the data packet to get the clear idea. Do you have/know any references ?

thanks again, and again, Hiroaki. Honestly speaking it helps me a lot :)

Hi Tanvir,

Then, we're talking about Linux specific sk_buf.mark,
not a packet marking in general.
In ryu library, you can find NXM_NX_PKT_MARK in
ryu/ofproto/nicira_ext.py, and it should not be
hard to use.
https://github.com/osrg/ryu/blob/master/ryu/ofproto/nicira_ext.py#L385

BTW, set_field action to metadata field can be used
to mark a packet as far as the packet is traveling
in openflow pipeline.
