This series contains a prototype implementation of STT for Open vSwitch.
This series consists of two patches:
* datapath: tunneling: Push vlan_set_tci() call into protocol handlers
This allows tunneling protocols to set the VLAN TCI to a non-zero
value and will be used by the implementation of STT.
* tunnelling: stt: Prototype Implementation
This patch implements STT, its changelog includes some commentary about
the state of the implementation. Review would be greatly appreciated - I
am sure there is ample room for improvement.
The implementation is based on the information available at
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-davie-stt-01
Changes since the previous posting (v2) are noted in the patch's changelog.
Primarily bug fixing and exercising previously unexercised code paths.
Further work:
It seems to me that some changes are needed to the tunneling core code,
in particular handle_offloads(), to allow GSO skbs to be passed
unsegmented to STT. Perhaps a new mutable->flags flag is in order?
