[ovs-dev] [PATCH 2/2] tunneling: Allow matching and setting tunnel 'OAM' flag.

2015-07-13 Thread Jesse Gross
Several encapsulation formats have the concept of an 'OAM' bit which typically is used with networking tracing tools to distinguish test packets from real traffic. OVS already internally has support for this, however, it doesn't do anything with it and it also isn't exposed for controllers to use.
