The only extension supported so far is GBP but this can be used to

Following patch adds support for userspace tunneling. Tunneling
needs three more component first is routing table which is configured by
caching kernel routes and second is ARP cache which build automatically
by snooping arp. And third is tunnel protocol table which list all
listening protocols which is populated by vswitchd as tunnel ports
are added. GRE and VXLAN protocol support is added in this patch.
Tunneling works as follows:
On packet receive vswitchd check if this packet is targeted to tunnel
port. If it is then vswitchd inserts tunnel pop action which pops
header and sends packet to tunnel port.
On packet xmit rather than generating Set tunnel action it generate
tunnel push action which has tunnel header data. datapath can use
tunnel-push action data to generate header for each packet and
forward this packet to output port. Since tunnel-push action
contains most of packet header vswitchd needs to lookup routing
table and arp table to build this action.

This adds support for Geneve - Generic Network Virtualization
Encapsulation. The protocol is documented at
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gross-geneve-00
The kernel implementation is completely agnostic to the options
that are in use and can handle newly defined options without
further work. It does this by simply matching on a byte array
of options and allowing userspace to setup flows on this array.
Userspace currently implements only support for basic version of
Geneve. It can work with the base header (including the VNI) and
is capable of parsing options but does not currently support any
particular option definitions. Over time, the intention is to
allow options to be matched through OpenFlow without requiring
explicit support in OVS userspace.

In most cases, tunnel ports specify a dpif name to act as the backing
port in the datapath. However, in the case of UDP tunnels the type is
used with the port number appended. This is potentially a problem for
IPsec tunnels because they have different types but should have the
same backing port. The hasn't been a problem in practice though because
no UDP tunnels are currently used with IPsec.
This switches to use the dpif_port in all cases plus a port number if
necessary. It does this by making the names short enough to accomodate
ports, which also makes the naming more consistent.

Commit 3e912ffcbb (netdev: Add 'change_seq' back to netdev.) added per-
netdev change number for indicating status change. Future commits used
this change number to optimize the netdev status update to database.
However, the work also introduced the bug in the following scenario:
- assume interface eth0 has address 1.2.3.4, eth1 has adddress 10.0.0.1.
- assume tunnel port p1 is set with remote_ip=10.0.0.5.
- after setup, 'ovs-vsctl list interface p1 status' should show the
'tunnel_egress_iface="eth1"'.
- now if the address of eth1 is change to 0 via 'ifconfig eth1 0'.
- expectedly, after change, 'ovs-vsctl list interface p1 status' should
show the 'tunnel_egress_iface="eth0"'
However, 'tunnel_egress_iface' will not be updated on current master.
This is in that, the 'netdev-vport' module corresponding to p1 does
not react to routing related changes.
To fix the bug, this commit adds a change sequence number in the route-
table module and makes netdev-vport check the sequence number for
tunnel status update.

Previously, we tracked status changes for ofports on a per-device basis.
Each time in the main thread's loop, we would inspect every ofport
to determine whether the status had changed for corresponding devices.
This patch replaces the per-netdev change_seq with a global 'struct seq'
which tracks status change for all ports. In the average case where
ports are not constantly going up or down, this allows us to check the
sequence once per main loop and not poll any ports. In the worst case,
execution is expected to be similar to how it is currently.
In a test environment of 5000 internal ports and 50 tunnel ports with
bfd, this reduces average CPU usage of the main thread from about 40% to
about 35%.

We've seen a number of deadlocks in the tree since thread safety was
introduced. So far, all of these are self-deadlocks, that is, a single
thread acquiring a lock and then attempting to re-acquire the same lock
recursively. When this has happened, the process simply hung, and it was
somewhat difficult to find the cause.
POSIX "error-checking" mutexes check for this specific problem (and
others). This commit switches from other types of mutexes to
error-checking mutexes everywhere that we can, that is, everywhere that
we're not using recursive mutexes. This ought to help find problems more
quickly in the future.
There might be performance advantages to other kinds of mutexes in some
cases. However, the existing mutex type choices were just guesses, so I'd
rather go for easy detection of errors until we know that other mutex
types actually perform better in specific cases. Also, I did a quick
microbenchmark of glibc mutex types on my host and found that the
error checking mutexes weren't any slower than the other types, at least
when the mutex is uncontended.

Adds tun_src and tun_dst match and set capabilities via new NXM fields
NXM_NX_TUN_IPV4_SRC and NXM_NX_TUN_IPV4_DST. This allows management of
large number of tunnels via the flow tables, without requiring the tunnels
to be pre-configured.
Flow-based tunnels can be configured with options remote_ip=flow and
local_ip=flow. local_ip=flow requires remote_ip=flow. When set, the
tunnel remote IP address and/or local IP address is set from the flow,
instead of the tunnel configuration.
Example:
$ ovs-vsctl add-port br0 gre -- set Interface gre ofport_request=1 type=gre options:remote_ip=flow options:key=flow
$ ovs-ofctl add-flow br0 "in_port=LOCAL actions=set_tunnel:1,set_field:192.168.0.1->tun_dst,output:1"

encapsulated packets do not carry an Ethernet header, it is removed

With this patch, ovs-vswitchd uses flow based tunneling

individual tunnels is now a userspace responsibility, so
netdev-vport no longer marshals and unmarshals Netlink attributes
for tunnel configuration, instead only storing the configuration
internally. There are still some significant pieces of work to do,
