Ports have a new layer3 attribute if they send/receive L3 packets.
The packet_type included in structs dp_packet and flow is considered in
ofproto-dpif. The classical L2 match fields (dl_src, dl_dst, dl_type, and
vlan_tci, vlan_vid, vlan_pcp) now have Ethernet as pre-requisite.
A dummy ethernet header is pushed to L3 packets received from L3 ports
before the the pipeline processing starts. The ethernet header is popped
before sending a packet to a L3 port.
For datapath ports that can receive L2 or L3 packets, the packet_type
becomes part of the flow key for datapath flows and is handled
appropriately in dpif-netdev.
In the 'else' branch in flow_put_on_pmd() function, the additional check
flow_equal(&match.flow, &netdev_flow->flow) was removed, as a) the dpcls
lookup is sufficient to uniquely identify a flow and b) it caused false
negatives because the flow in netdev->flow may not properly masked.
In dpif_netdev_flow_put() we now use the same method for constructing the
netdev_flow_key as the one used when adding the flow to the dplcs to make sure
these always match. The function netdev_flow_key_from_flow() used so far was
not only inefficient but sometimes caused mismatches and subsequent flow
update failures.
The kernel datapath does not support the packet_type match field.
Instead it encodes the packet type implictly by the presence or absence of
the Ethernet attribute in the flow key and mask.
This patch filters the PACKET_TYPE attribute out of netlink flow key and
mask to be sent to the kernel datapath.

In order to be able to add those tunnels, we need to add code to create
the tunnels and add them as NETDEV vports. And when there is no support
to create them, we need to fallback to compatibility code and add them
as tunnel vports.
When removing those tunnels, we need to remove the interfaces as well,
and detecting the right type might be important, at least to distinguish
the tunnel vports that we should remove and the interfaces that we
shouldn't.

This commit adds a packet_type attribute to the structs dp_packet and flow
to explicitly carry the type of the packet as prepration for the
introduction of the so-called packet type-aware pipeline (PTAP) in OVS.
The packet_type is a big-endian 32 bit integer with the encoding as
specified in OpenFlow verion 1.5.
The upper 16 bits contain the packet type name space. Pre-defined values
are defined in openflow-common.h:
enum ofp_header_type_namespaces {
OFPHTN_ONF = 0, /* ONF namespace. */
OFPHTN_ETHERTYPE = 1, /* ns_type is an Ethertype. */
OFPHTN_IP_PROTO = 2, /* ns_type is a IP protocol number. */
OFPHTN_UDP_TCP_PORT = 3, /* ns_type is a TCP or UDP port. */
OFPHTN_IPV4_OPTION = 4, /* ns_type is an IPv4 option number. */
};
The lower 16 bits specify the actual type in the context of the name space.
Only name spaces 0 and 1 will be supported for now.
For name space OFPHTN_ONF the relevant packet type is 0 (Ethernet).
This is the default packet_type in OVS and the only one supported so far.
Packets of type (OFPHTN_ONF, 0) are called Ethernet packets.
In name space OFPHTN_ETHERTYPE the type is the Ethertype of the packet.
A packet of type (OFPHTN_ETHERTYPE, <Ethertype>) is a standard L2 packet
whith the Ethernet header (and any VLAN tags) removed to expose the L3
(or L2.5) payload of the packet. These will simply be called L3 packets.
The Ethernet address fields dl_src and dl_dst in struct flow are not
applicable for an L3 packet and must be zero. However, to maintain
compatibility with the large code base, we have chosen to copy the
Ethertype of an L3 packet into the the dl_type field of struct flow.
This does not mean that it will be possible to match on dl_type for L3
packets with PTAP later on. Matching must be done on packet_type instead.
New dp_packets are initialized with packet_type Ethernet. Ports that
receive L3 packets will have to explicitly adjust the packet_type.

This patch updates the following commands in the vswitch:
ovs-vsctl add-br br-test
ovs-vsctl del-br br-test
ovs-vsctl add-br br-test:
This command will now create an internal port on the MSFT virtual switch
using the WMI interface from Msvm_VirtualEthernetSwitchManagementService
leveraging the method AddResourceSettings.
Before creating the actual port, the switch will be queried to see if there
is not a port already created (good for restarts when restarting the
vswitch daemon). If there is a port defined it will return success and log
a message.
After checking if the port already exists the command will also verify
if the forwarding extension (windows datapath) is enabled and on a single
switch. If it is not activated or if it is activated on multiple switches
it will return an error and a message will be logged.
After the port was created on the switch, we will disable the adapter on
the host and rename to the corresponding OVS bridge name for consistency.
The user will enable and set the values he wants after creation.
ovs-vsctl del-br br-test
This command will remove an internal port on the MSFT virtual switch
using the Msvm_VirtualEthernetSwitchManagementService class and executing
the method RemoveResourceSettings.
Both commands will be blocking until the WMI job is finished, this allows us
to guarantee that the ports are created and their name are set before issuing
a netlink message to the windows datapath.
This patch also includes helpers for normal WMI retrievals and initializations.
Appveyor and documentation has been modified to include the libraries needed
for COM objects.
This patch was tested individually using IMallocSpy and CRT heap checks
to ensure no new memory leaks are introduced.

User space now may receive re-assembled IP fragments. The user space
netlink handler can now accept packets with the new OVS_PACKET_ATTR_MRU
attribute. This allows the kernel to assemble fragmented packets for the
duration of OpenFlow processing, then re-fragment at output time. Most
notably this occurs for packets that are sent through the connection
tracker.
Note that the MRU attribute is not exported at the OpenFlow layer. As
such, if packets are reassembled by conntrack and subsequently sent to
the controller, then OVS has no way to re-serialize the packets to their
original size.

When dpdk configuration changes, all pmd threads are recreated
and rx queues of each port are reloaded. After this process,
rx queue could be mapped to a different pmd thread other than
the one before reconfiguration. However, this is totally
transparent to ofproto layer modules. So, if the ofproto-dpif-upcall
module still holds ukeys generated before pmd thread recreation,
this old ukey will collide with the ukey for the new upcalls
from same traffic flow, causing flow installation failure.
To fix the bug, this commit adds a new call-back function
in dpif layer for notifying upper layer the purging of datapath
(e.g. pmd thread deletion in dpif-netdev). So, the
ofproto-dpif-upcall module can react properly with deleting
the ukeys and with collecting flows' last stats.

Packets are still sampled at ingress only, so the egress
tunnel and/or MPLS structures are only included when there is just 1 output
port. The actions are either provided by the datapath in the sample upcall
or looked up in the userspace cache. The former is preferred because it is
more reliable and does not present any new demands or constraints on the
userspace cache, however the code falls back on the userspace lookup so that
this solution can work with existing kernel datapath modules. If the lookup
fails it is not critical: the compiled user-action-cookie is still available
and provides the essential output port and output VLAN forwarding information
just as before.
The openvswitch actions can express almost any tunneling/mangling so the only
totally faithful representation would be to somehow encode the whole list of
flow actions in the sFlow output. However the standard sFlow tunnel structures
can express most common real-world scenarios, so in parsing the actions we
look for those and skip the encoding if we see anything unusual. For example,
a single set(tunnel()) or tnl_push() is interpreted, but if a second such
action is encountered then the egress tunnel reporting is suppressed.
The sFlow standard allows "best effort" encoding so that if a field is not
knowable or too onerous to look up then it can be left out. This is often
the case for the layer-4 source port or even the src ip address of a tunnel.
The assumption is that monitoring is enabled everywhere so a missing field
can typically be seen at ingress to the next switch in the path.
This patch also adds unit tests to check the sFlow encoding of set(tunnel()),
tnl_push() and push_mpls() actions.
The netlink attribute to request that actions be included in the upcall
from the datapath is inserted for sFlow sampling only. To make that option
be explicit would require further changes to the printing and parsing of
actions in lib/odp-util.c, and to scripts in the test suite.
Further enhancements to report on 802.1AD QinQ, 64-bit tunnel IDs, and NAT
transformations can follow in future patches that make only incremental
changes.

written by the owning pmd thread.
As side effects, the flow-dump output of userspace datapath
can contain overlapping flows. To reduce confusion, the dump
from different pmd thread will be separated by a title line.
In addition, the flow operations via 'ovs-appctl dpctl/*'
are modified so that if the given flow in_port corresponds
to a dpdk interface, the operation will be conducted to all
pmd threads recv from that interface (expect for flow-get

There are two users of this functionality: Revalidators check for UFID
support to request a terser dump using UFIDs, and dpif-netlink uses this
to request flow_del operations to only return the UFID/stats. The latter
case was previously hidden from revalidators, but this change makes them
