[ovs-dev] [VLAN splinters 14/16] ofproto-dpif: Move ODP actions from facets to subfacets.

Ben Pfaff blp at nicira.com
Wed Nov 16 01:17:12 UTC 2011


This is a prerequisite for the upcoming VLAN splinter patch, because
splinters and non-splintered subfacets might need slightly different
actions due to the VLAN tag being initially different (present vs. absent).

This is only desirable for use with VLAN splinters and should be reverted
when this feature is no longer needed.  I'm breaking it out here only to
make the series easier to review.
