From 971427f353f3c42c8dcef62e7124440df68eb809 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Zhou Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2014 19:37:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] openvswitch: Add recirc and hash action. Recirc action allows a packet to reenter openvswitch processing. currently openvswitch lookup flow for packet received and execute set of actions on that packet, with help of recirc action we can process/modify the packet and recirculate it back in openvswitch for another pass. OVS hash action calculates 5-tupple hash and set hash in flow-key hash. This can be used along with recirculation for distributing packets among different ports for bond devices. For example: OVS bonding can use following actions: Match on: bond flow; Action: hash, recirc(id) Match on: recirc-id == id and hash lower bits == a; Action: output port_bond_a Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou Acked-by: Jesse Gross Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar --- Reading git-format-patch failed
