netdev: Add support for "patch" type
This commit introduces a new netdev type called "patch". A patch is a
pair of interfaces, in which frames sent through one of the devices
pop out of the other. This is useful for linking together datapaths.
A patch's only argument on creation is "peer", which specifies the other
side of the patch. A patch must be created in pairs, so a second netdev
must be created with the "name" and "peer" values reversed.
The current implementation is built using veth devices. Further, it's
limited to the veth devices which support configuration through sysfs.
This limits the ability to use a "patch" on 2.6.18 kernels using the
veth device we include (read: flavors of XenServer 5.5). In the not too
distant future, the implementation will be modified to use the new
kernel port abstraction introduced by Jesse Gross's forthcoming GRE
work. At that point, patch devices will work on any Linux platform
supported by OVS.

xenserver: Disable brcompatd except on XenServer 5.5.0
The compat layer is now unused in the vswitch branch of XenServer.
Based on change originally by Ian Campbell, cherry-picked from
"xs5.7" branch. The original change was not conditional on the
XenServer version.

Ensure "service vswitch status" returns appropriate error code
This command was returning success when vswitchd was not running.
Our automated test relies on this command to decide if the host uses
vswitch or not.
If vswitchd is not OK then brcompatd is not checked at all. Since the
return codes apparently have specific meanings I couldn't see a sensible
way to combine multiple failure results.
(Cherry-picked from xs5.7 branch by Ben Pfaff but merge conflicts meant
that the whole thing had to be redone.)

xenserver: Correct "service vswitch status" when brcompatd is disabled
I don't think it makes sense to report brcompatd's status when it is
explicitly disabled. Doing so causes service status to return an error
when brcompatd is deliberately disabled.
Also fix up a tab vs. spaces whitespace snafu.

Cleanup default file locations and XenServer packaging
This commit cleans up the locations of a number of files and directories
used. These include:
- Config file lives in /etc/openvswitch/conf.db
- Logs go into /var/log/openvswitch
- ovsdb-server socket is /var/run/openvswitch/db.sock
- Schema goes into /usr/share/openvswitch/vswitch.ovsschema
- PID files go in /var/run/openvswitch
For XenServer, these additional changes are made:
- Cores go in /var/xen/openvswitch
- OVS binaries run in /var/xen/openvswitch
In addition, it attempts to cleanup the XenServer packaging. This
includes referring to the project as "openvswitch" as opposed to the
somewhat presumptuous "vswitch".
Note: Changes to the Debian packaging will be forthcoming.

timeval: Always log true poll interval instead of rounding off.
This code triggers when a trip through the process's main loop takes much
longer than expected. The code for calculating the expected time rounds
down to a maximum of 10000 ms to avoid overflow. But there is no reason
that the correct time should not be displayed in the log message, and
furthermore displaying the correct time may help tracking down the
underlying issue, since it lets the administrator find out exactly when
the trip through the main loop started. So this commit displays the exact
time without rounding down.

fatal-signal: Initialize library upon any call to public function.
Not calling fatal_signal_init() means that the signal handlers don't get
registered, so the process won't clean up on fatal signals. Furthermore,
signal_fds[0] is then 0, which means that fatal-signal_wait() waits on
stdin, so if you are testing a program interactively and accidentally type
something on stdin then that program's CPU usage jumps to 100%.
Since poll_block() calls fatal_signal_wait() this seems like the most
reliable solution.

ovsdb-server to re-read its certificates and keys every 60 seconds just

vswitchd: Make names of Bridge external_ids generic.
Until now the names of the external_ids keys used for Bridge records have

They are more generic in intent, however, so this commit removes the "xs-"

This finishes the renaming process started in commit c0f9490 "vswitchd:

Until now, the stream_ssl functions for configuring private keys,

installed the file behind our backs).

we will want to do essentially the same thing from ovsdb-server, so this
avoid code redundancy.
