Option to forward BPDU (Ethernet control class) frames
Currently, a NORMAL action bridge drops reserved-multicast-mac addresses;

netdev: Decouple creating and configuring network devices.
Until now, each call to netdev_open() for a particular network device
had to either specify a set of network device arguments that was either
empty or (for devices that already existed) equal to the existing device's
configuration. Unfortunately, the definition of "equality" in the latter
case was mostly done in terms of strict equality of string-to-string maps,
which caused problems in cases where, for example, one set of arguments
specified the default value of an optional argument explicitly and the
other omitted it.
The netdev interface does have provisions for defining equality other ways,
but this had only been done in one case that was especially problematic in
practice. One way to solve this particular problem would be to carefully
define equality in all the problematic cases.
This commit takes another approach based on the realization that there is
really no need to do any comparisons. Instead, it removes configuration
at netdev_open() time entirely, because almost all of netdev_open()'s
callers are not interested in creating and configuring a netdev. Most of
them just want to open a configured device and use it. Therefore, this
commit stops providing any configuration arguments to netdev_open() and the
provider functions that it calls. Instead, a caller that does want to
configure a device does so after it opens it, by calling
netdev_set_config().
This change allows us to simplify the netdev interface a bit. There is no
longer any need to implement argument comparisons. As a result, there is
also no need for "struct netdev_dev" to keep track of configuration at all.
Instead, the network devices that have configuration keep track of it in
their own internal form.
This new interface does mean that it becomes possible to accidentally
create and try to use an unconfigured netdev that requires configuration.

Document and warn that mirroring to a VLAN is incompatible with SLB bonding.
vswitchd/INTERNALS explains the incompatibility:
2. When Open vSwitch forwards a multicast or broadcast packet to a
link in the SLB bond other than the active slave, the remote
switch will forward it to all of the other links in the SLB
bond, including the active slave. Without special handling,
this would mean that Open vSwitch would forward a second copy of
the packet to each switch port (other than the bond), including
the port that originated the packet.
Open vSwitch deals with this case by dropping packets received
on any SLB bonded link that have a source MAC+VLAN that has been
learned on any other port. (This means that SLB as implemented
in Open vSwitch relies critically on MAC learning. Notably, SLB
is incompatible with the "flood_vlans" feature.)
We could go farther than this and automatically change the bonding mode to
a safer one (e.g. active-backup) when flood_vlans are enabled. However,
that would still leave the SLB fallback for LACP modes in place; perhaps
active-backup would have to be the fallback for LACP modes when flood_vlans
are enabled.

in-band: Delete remaining rules when disabling in-band control.
in_band_destroy() doesn't remove all of the rules that in-band control
adds (and it cannot, because that might require waiting for an existing
asynchronous flow modification or addition to complete), so turning on
other-config:disable-in-band or deleting all of the OpenFlow controllers
did not delete all of the in-band rules.
This commit fixes the problem by making the in-band control object hang
around until all of the flows that it set up have actually been deleted.
This problem was introduced as part of commit
7ee20df "ofproto: Implement
asynchronous OFPT_FLOW_MOD commands."

* If the number of entries in a table exceeds
the number of buckets that it has then
an attempt will be made to resize the table.
* There is a limit of TBL_MAX_BUCKETS placed on
the number of buckets of a table.

This allows a table to hold more than TBL_MAX_BUCKETS

On new kernels kzalloc() is simply a wrapper around kmalloc with
the addition of the __GFP_ZERO flag. flex_arrays take advantage
of this by expecting the user to just pass in this flag if they
want the memory to be zeroed. However, before 2.6.23, kzalloc()
was a function in its own right and kmalloc really didn't like
receiving __GFP_ZERO. This overrides kmalloc() to intercept the
flags and direct the call to the right function.

debian: Move OVSDB schema and ovsdb-tool to openvswitch-switch.
ovs-vswitchd in the openvswitch-switch package is tightly coupled to its
database schema. During development, it's possible to change the schema
without changing the Open vSwitch version number, which makes it possible
for the openvswitch-switch and openvswitch-common packages to get out of
sync: openvswitch-switch requires the same version of openvswitch-common,
but if the version number doesn't get updated that has no effect.
Actually putting the schema and ovs-vswitchd (its primary user) in the
same package prevents them from getting out-of-sync. This commit also
moves ovsdb-tool because that program often works directly with OVSDB
schemas and so there's not much point having it around without a schema to
work with.

ofproto-dpif: Restore former NORMAL action behavior when revalidating.
Before commit
fa066f015 "bridge: Move packet processing functionality into
ofproto," the code that called into what became xlate_normal() prevented
a flow from being installed if it was called at revalidation time and
the MAC learning table lacked an entry for the flow's destination MAC.
That commit instead started dropping packets in that case (because it
incorrectly ignored xlate_normal()'s return value).
This restores the former behavior. It's not clear that the former behavior
is the best possible, but it is strictly better than starting to drop
packets at revalidation time.
Along with the previously fixed problem where flood_vlans were interpreted
incorrectly, this bug broke controller connectivity when flood_vlans was
set to any nonempty value that did not include the VLAN used for the
controller connection (that is, when flood_vlans was interpreted as
flooding the controller VLAN).
