Subject: xenserver: New iface-status external id.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=32abfca0;p=openvswitch

xenserver: New iface-status external id.

The iface-status external id indicates to a controller which device
it should manage when there are multiple choices for a given vif.
Currently, it always chooses a tap device if available, but one
could imagine more sophisticated strategies in the future.
