mainlining shenanigans
4aafc368da
We currently transition the port to "Virtual mode" upon the creation of
its first VLAN upper, as we need to classify incoming packets to a FID
using {Port, VID} and not only the VID.
However, it's more appropriate to transition the port to this mode when
the {Port, VID} are actually mapped to a FID. Either during the
enslavement of the VLAN upper to a VLAN-unaware bridge or the
configuration of a router port.
Do this change now in preparation for the introduction of the FID core,
where this operation will be encapsulated.
To prevent regressions, this patch also explicitly configures an OVS
slave to "Virtual mode". Otherwise, a packet that didn't hit an ACL rule
could be classified to an existing FID based on a global VID-to-FID
mapping, thus not incurring a FID mis-classification, which would
otherwise trap the packet to the CPU to be processed by the OVS daemon.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
