that is all done, is probably 2 or 3 days work.
[optional for OF1.3+]
- * Per-flow meters. Similar to IPv6 extension headers in kernel
- and design requirements. Might be politically difficult to add
- directly to the kernel module, since its functionality overlaps
- with tc. Ideally, therefore, we could implement these somehow
- with tc, but I haven't investigated whether that makes sense.
+ * Per-flow meters. OpenFlow protocol support is now implemented.
+ Support for the special OFPM_SLOWPATH and OFPM_CONTROLLER meters
+ is missing. Support for the software switch is under review.
[optional for OF1.3+]
* Per-connection event filtering. OF1.3 adopted Open vSwitch's
some kind of "hardware" support, if we judged it useful enough.)
[optional for OF1.3+]
- * MPLS BoS matching. (Included in Simon's MPLS series?)
+ * MPLS BoS matching.
+ Part of MPLS patchset by Simon Horman.
[optional for OF1.3+]
* Provider Backbone Bridge tagging. I don't plan to implement
this (but we'd accept an implementation).
[optional for OF1.3+]
- * Rework tag order. I'm not sure whether we need to do anything
- for this. Part of MPLS patchset by Simon Horman.
+ * Rework tag order.
+ Part of MPLS patchset by Simon Horman.
[required for v1.3+]
* On-demand flow counters. I think this might be a real
[EXT-235]
