Hi,

we'd like to add the Open vSwitch kernel module to OpenVZ kernel,
in order to do that we've backported the appropriate code from mainstream 
kernel.

It turned out that the vport-patch functionality could be also very useful for 
us,
so we are looking for possibility to include it to our kernel as well.

Unfortunately mainstream does not have vport-patch functionality at the moment 
and
porting vport-patch related code from openvswitch.org git and incorporating it 
into
the code taken from mainstream appeared to be not a straightforward task.

On the other hand i've found that Open vSwitch FAQ says:
"Work is in progress in adding these features ["patch" in particular] to the
upstream Linux version of the Open vSwitch kernel module."


So can you please clarify:
* is that info in FAQ still valid and the work for "patch" inclusion in 
mainstream is in progress?
* i failed to find any preliminary patches in the web, but if you have any -
  can you please share it or just tell me where should i look for it?


Thank you in advance.
