Until now, a command that removed and added ports in a single change to
the database, e.g.:
ovs-vsctl del-port br0 vif1.0 -- add-port br0 vif2.0
typically failed, because of this sequence of events:
1. Bridge code removes vif1.0 from br0.
2. Bridge code adds vif2.0 to br0.
3. ofproto_run() receives kernel notification that vif1.0 was deleted, so
it notifies the bridge by calling back to bridge_port_changed_ofhook_cb,
which sees that it has an interface with the specified port number, and
deletes it. Oops--this is where the problem occurs. For completeness:
4. ofproto_run() receives kernel notification that vif2.0 was added, so
it notifies the bridge by calling back to ,
which sees that it has no interface with the specified port number, and
does nothing.
This commit fixes the problem by making bridge_port_changed_ofhook_cb() not
care about ports being dropped. This is a corner case that we shouldn't
work too hard to care about, since it can only happen if an administrator
is meddling with datapaths using ovs-dpctl, and the consequences are simply
that packets directed to that device will take longer to be rerouted to
another device (it will take a while for the MAC learning table to time out
the entry). Basically, the admin gets what he deserves.

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: Add tunnel header caching.
On the transmit path we generate essentially the same tunnel header
for every packet to a given destination. However, each packet must
have the headers assembled in pieces, lookup the destination in the
routing table, and lookup the flow in OVS. This avoids that extra
work by caching all of the header and output path information and
only rebuilding it when something actually changes.
This optimization reduces CPU load on transmit by approximately 13%.
