This series of patches proposes the Open vSwitch kernel components for upstream. Open vSwitch has existed as a separate project for several years and we now believe it to be mature enough for inclusion. The actual functionality is described more fully in the commit that adds the kernel code.
The following changes since commit b8ffdbd05f8692cdadccd04464271e48b1e8d439: gianfar: Use kmemdup rather than duplicating its implementation (2011-11-21 15:02:36 -0500) are available in the git repository at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jesse/openvswitch.git for-upstream Jesse Gross (2): genetlink: Add rcu_dereference_genl and genl_dereference. net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.
