Within OvS, we have added the following patches to enable the examples in this repo:

  • Rule Copy: When a new OpenFlow rule is inserted into the OvS userspace pipeline, we will copy that rule into the underlying pipeline via match.
  • Tunnel Copy: When a new tunnel is created over OVSDB, we will copy this tunnel instance into the underlying pipeline via match.
  • Virtual Port Modeling: The underlying pipeline may have direct connections to a VM, container, or application, so a new port type was added to OvS for this. This allows OvS to send and receive packets to/from these virtual ports.
  • Metadata Capture: We have added a mechanism to carry metadata from the underlying pipeline into the OvS userspace pipeline.
