[ovs-dev] [PATCH v2 0/3] Support for layer 3 ports

[Lorand Jakab]

This series implements support for layer 3 ports, of which we have one example
so far, the LISP vport.  LISP support has been implemented with a hack, by
adding/removing the Ethernet header within the datapath/vport-lisp.c file.  By
removing the assumption that all packets/flows have Ethernet header, this
series adds generic support for layer 3 ports in OVS, and thus it is expected
that the user/kernel space API for LISP support will not change.  This allows
the upstreaming of the LISP vport, resulting in a decreased delta against the
Linux kernel module, which is the main goal that started this work.

The third patch in this series is a rebased version of patch # 2099 in
Patchwork, which can now be deleted.

Changes from the first version:
  * Addressed all comments from Ben's review
  * Fixed all failing unit tests

Lorand Jakab (3):
  userspace: add support for pop_eth and push_eth actions
  userspace: add layer 3 flow and switching support
  datapath: add layer 3 flow/port support
