Hi,

Is it possible to set somehow the datapath desciption of a switch?  (So
that "ovs-ofctl dump-desc" would show it, and a OFPST_DESC OpenFlow
message could request it.)

Browsing the source, it seems to me that ofproto_set_desc() can set
dp_desc, but this function is never called from anywhere.  

I've also found an old patch request, but that helped me neither:

Thanks,
Felicián
