[ovs-dev] [PATCH] ovs : Implementation to add meter in ovs flows

[Deepanshu Saxena1/CHN/TCS]

Thanks for the review comments. I am working on the review comments. 

As per earlier discussion on meter implementation [1] the approach is to use tc capabilities for kernel implementation. Using qdisc and filters 
I implemented meter as rate limiter. 

I understood your point that my code is applying tc on the output port following the meter instruction. I implemented it like this because as per my understanding tc is applied to a port. I selected the output port for that purpose. 
 
Can you please clarify the approach to use tc for kernel space implementation of meters.
