debian: Add support for GRE-over-IPsec
The ovs-monitor-ipsec daemon monitors the Interface table for GRE
entries. If an entry specifies other-config parameters "ipsec-local-ip"
and ("ipsec-psk" or "ipsec-cert"), it will create the appropriate
security associations so that all GRE traffic to the remote host will be
encrypted. In order for the two GRE tunnels to communicate, both sides
need to be configured for IPsec with appropriate authentication.
Currently, ovs-monitor-ipsec does not support certificate authentication
or ensure that an interface is actually attached to a bridge. Both of
these issues will be addressed in a forthcoming patch.
NB: While GRE-over-IPsec should work on any system with a relatively
recent racoon and setkey, it has only been tested on Debian. As such,
only Debian packaging has been provided.

datapath: Include net/udp.h in vport-capwap.c
net/udp.h is currently included indirectly via linux/ipv6.h which is
in turn included indirectly via linux/ip.h. However, this breaks down
if CONFIG_IPV6 is not set, leading to a number of build errors.

datapath: Avoid accesses past the end of skbuff data in actions.
Some of the flow actions that modify skbuff data did not check that the
skbuff was long enough before doing so. This commit fixes that problem.
Previously, the strategy for avoiding this was to only indicate the layer-3
nw_proto field in the flow if the corresponding layer-4 header was fully
present, so that if, for example, nw_proto was IPPROTO_TCP, this meant
that a TCP header was present. The original motivation for this patch was
to add corresponding code to only indicate a layer-2 dl_type if the
corresponding layer-3 header was fully present. But I'm now convinced that
this approach is conceptually wrong, because the meaning of a layer-N
header should not be affected by the meaning of a layer-(N+1) header.
This commit switches to a new approach. Now, when a header is missing, its
fields in the flow are simply zeroed and have no effect on the "type" field
for the outer header. Responsibility for ensuring that a header is fully
present is now shifted to the actions that wish to modify that header.

ofproto: Avoid user->kernel->user round-trip for many controller actions.
When an OpenFlow flow says to send packets to the controller, until now
ofproto has executed that using dpif_execute(), which passes the packet up
to the kernel. The kernel queues the packet into its "action" queue, and
then later ofproto pulls the packet back down from the kernel and sends it
to the controller.
However, this is unnecessary. Open vSwitch can just recognize in advance
that it will get the packet back and handle it directly, skipping the round
trip. This commit implements this optimization.
This generally affects only the first packet in a flow, since generally the
rest come directly down from the kernel. It only optimizes the "easy" case
where the first action in a flow is to send the packet to the controller,
since this seems to be the common case in the flows that I'm looking at
now.

Add Nicira extension to OpenFlow for dropping spoofed ARP packets.
"ARP spoofing" is when a host claims an incorrect association between an
IP address and a MAC address for deceptive purposes. OpenFlow by itself
can prevent a host from sending out ARP replies from an incorrect MAC
address in the Ethernet L2 header, but it cannot control the MAC addresses
inside the ARP L3 packet. This commit adds a new action that can be used
to drop these spoofed packets.

Create new identifiers without the "-uuid" suffix. Change the existing

also allows a XenServer integrator to define identifiers different from
the XenServer UUIDs, but still leave them in the config database to be
used by other programs.
