lookup_ip will emit an error when used with an IPv6 address, like below.
2015-10-20T18:48:22.357Z|00036|socket_util|ERR|"2001:cafe::92" is not a valid IP address
Verify if address looks like IPv6 before giving it to either lookup_ip or
lookup_ipv6.

This allows the ARP cache to be prepopulated for testing purposes, so
that tests don't lose the first packet to each destination. (I guess
this feature could have other uses too.)

Define struct eth_addr and use it instead of a uint8_t array for all
ethernet addresses in OVS userspace. The struct is always the right
size, and it can be assigned without an explicit memcpy, which makes
code more readable.
"struct eth_addr" is a good type name for this as many utility
functions are already named accordingly.
struct eth_addr can be accessed as bytes as well as ovs_be16's, which
makes the struct 16-bit aligned. All use seems to be 16-bit aligned,
so some algorithms on the ethernet addresses can be made a bit more
efficient making use of this fact.
As the struct fits into a register (in 64-bit systems) we pass it by
value when possible.
This patch also changes the few uses of Linux specific ETH_ALEN to
OVS's own ETH_ADDR_LEN, and removes the OFP_ETH_ALEN, as it is no
longer needed.
This work stemmed from a desire to make all struct flow members
assignable for unrelated exploration purposes. However, I think this
might be a nice code readability improvement by itself.

strncpy() has a lot of pitfalls. A while back we replaced all its uses by
calls to ovs_strlcpy() or ovs_strzcpy(), but some more have crept in. This
commit fixes them.

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.
