This patch set is the 2nd part of an initiative presented by Jan Scheurich:
https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2017-May/332367.html
It takes the patch set referred by the link above as a bases.
The goal is to deal with non-Ethernet packets in OVS for advanced use cases
like L3 tunneling or NSH. The initiative is centering on the new OpenFlow
concepts of "Packet type-aware pipeline" (PTAP) and "Generic encap/decap
actions" (EXT-382). The overall design is documented in:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oWMYUH8sjZJzWa72o2q9kU0N6pNE-rwZcLH3-kbbDR8
These patches introduce the OXM field MFF_PACKET_TYPE, the 'packet-type-aware'
bridge property, add support for versatile tunnel ports, provide new unit
tests, implement packet-in for non-Ethernet packets and introduce OF 1.5
packet-out handling.
The present series v2 supersedes v1
(https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2017-April/331023.html),
V2 was rebased to v6 of "userspace: Support for L3 tunneling" patch series
mentioned before. It fixes warnings and some of its patches were merged
together.
userspace: Add OXM field MFF_PACKET_TYPE
userspace: Add bridge property 'packet-type-aware'
userspace: Handling of versatile tunnel ports
tests: Added unit tests in packet-type-aware.at
userspace: Complete Packet In handling
userspace: Introduce OF 1.5 packet-out
Changes v1 -> v2:
* Rebased to v6 of "userspace: Support for L3 tunneling" patch series
* Fixed warnings
