From d3052bb5d306b29c1e7d9e5998c5ac4ca1ff0ca9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Stringer Date: Wed, 19 Nov 2014 13:54:49 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] openvswitch: Don't validate IPv6 label masks. When userspace doesn't provide a mask, OVS datapath generates a fully unwildcarded mask for the flow by copying the flow and setting all bits in all fields. For IPv6 label, this creates a mask that matches on the upper 12 bits, causing the following error: openvswitch: netlink: Invalid IPv6 flow label value (value=ffffffff, max=fffff) This patch ignores the label validation check for masks, avoiding this error.
