[ovs-dev] [PATCH net-next v2 0/4] openvswitch: add IPv6 tunneling support

[Jiri Benc]

This builds on the previous work that added IPv6 support to lwtunnels and
adds IPv6 tunneling support to ovs.

To use IPv6 tunneling, there needs to be a metadata based tunnel net_device
created and added to the ovs bridge. Currently, only vxlan is supported by
the kernel, with geneve to follow shortly. There's no need nor intent to add
a support for this into the vport-vxlan (etc.) compat layer.

Jiri Benc (4):
  openvswitch: add tunnel protocol to sw_flow_key
  openvswitch: netlink attributes for IPv6 tunneling
  ip_tunnels: introduce ip6_tunnel_key_init
  openvswitch: IPv6 support for ovs_tunnel_get_egress_info
