Thanks for the patch. It looks good to me, but it needs a
Signed-off-by.
Q: What's a Signed-off-by and how do I provide one?
A: Free and open source software projects usually require a contributor to
provide some assurance that they're entitled to contribute the code that
they provide. Some projects, for example, do this with a Contributor
License Agreement (CLA) or a copyright assignment that is signed on paper
or electronically.
For this purpose, Open vSwitch has adopted something called the Developer's
Certificate of Origin (DCO), which is also used by the Linux kernel and
originated there. Informally stated, agreeing to the DCO is the
developer's way of attesting that a particular commit that they are
contributing is one that they are allowed to contribute. You should visit
https://developercertificate.org/ to read the full statement of the DCO,
which is less than 200 words long.
To certify compliance with the Developer's Certificate of Origin for a
particular commit, just add the following line to the end of your commit
message, properly substituting your name and email address:
Signed-off-by: Firstname Lastname
Git has special support for adding a Signed-off-by line to a commit
message: when you run "git commit", just add the -s option, as in "git
commit -s". If you use the "git citool" GUI for commits, you can add a
Signed-off-by line to the commit message by pressing Control+S. Other Git
user interfaces may provide similar support.
