2012-12-27openvswitch: Remove Linux bridge compatibility.Pravin B Shelar
Currently brcompat does not work on master due to recent datapath changes. We have decided to remove it as it is not used very widely. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Acked-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
2012-11-29ovs-ofctl: Add option to set allowed OpenFlow versionsSimon Horman
--protocols allows configuration of the versions that may be used when establishing an OpenFlow connection. The default is 'OpenFlow10' which is consistent with the behaviour prior to this patch. The useful values at this time are: 'OpenFlow10', 'OpenFlow12', 'OpenFlow13', Values may be combined in a comma delimited list. e.g.: --protocols 'OpenFlow10,OpenFlow12,OpenFlow13' Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au> Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@nicira.com>
2012-11-01ofproto-dpif: Add ovs-appctl commands for ovs-dpctl functions.Justin Pettit
These commands will be useful in a future commit that makes multiple bridges share a single backing datapath. The ovs-dpctl commands will show information about the backing datapath, so it will be difficult to determine which information belongs to which bridge. The new "dpif/*" ovs-appctl commands return information about the bridge--regardless of how the backing datapath is configured. Signed-off-by: Justin Pettit <jpettit@nicira.com>

2012-07-02ovs-l3ping: A new test utility that allows to detect L3 tunneling issuesAnsis Atteka
ovs-l3ping is similar to ovs-test, but the main difference is that it does not require administrator to open firewall holes for the XML/RPC control connection. This is achieved by encapsulating the Control Connection over the L3 tunnel itself. This tool is not intended as a replacement for ovs-test, because ovs-test covers much broader set of test cases. Sample usage: Node1: ovs-l3ping -s 192.168.122.236,10.1.1.1 -t gre Node2: ovs-l3ping -c 192.168.122.220,10.1.1.2,10.1.1.1 -t gre Issue#11791 Signed-off-by: Ansis Atteka <aatteka@nicira.com>
2012-04-26coverage: Make ovs-appctl command more useful and less alarming.Ben Pfaff
I've had a few complaints that ovs-vswitchd logs its coverage counters at WARN level, but this is mainly wrong: ovs-vswitchd only logs coverage counters at WARN level when the "coverage/log" command is used through ovs-appctl. This was even documented. The reason to log at such a high level was to make it fairly certain that these messages specifically requested by the admin would not be filtered out before making it to the log. But it's even better if the admin just gets the coverage counters as a reply to the ovs-appctl command. So that is what this commit does. This commit also improves the documentation of the ovs-appctl command. Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@nicira.com>

2011-11-18ovs-test: A new tool that allows to diagnose connectivity and performance issuesAnsis Atteka
This tool will be a replacement for the current ovs-vlan-test utility. Besides from connectivity issues it will also be able to detect performance related issues in Open vSwitch setups. Currently it uses UDP and TCP protocols for stressing. Issue #6976
2011-10-27Fix manpage-check on RHEL 5.Ben Pfaff
The version of groff on RHEL 5 doesn't include the .SY, .OP, or .YS macros that ovs-benchmark.1 uses, so the manpage-check target fails on that platform. This commit adds the groff definitions of those macros to a file and includes it into ovs-benchmark.1. I tested that this allows RHEL 5 to pass manpage-check.
2011-10-26Implement automatic dependency generation for manpages.Ben Pfaff
This ensures that manpages actually get rebuilt if any of the lib/*.man fragments that they depend upon are modified.
