net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components. Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and translate it into packet processing rules. See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace utilities. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> 2011-10-25 19:26:31 -07:00

openvswitch: kernel datapath clone action Add 'clone' action to kernel datapath by using existing functions. When actions within clone don't modify the current flow, the flow key is not cloned before executing clone actions. This is a follow up patch for this incomplete work: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/722096/ v1 -> v2: Refactor as advised by reviewer.
