Come on Jiri!
The ovs guys are against this and now no *api exists*?
Write a 15 tuple classifier tc classifier and use it. I will be more

Totally unacceptable in my books. If the OVS guys want some way out
to be able to ride on some vendor sdks then that is their problem.
We shouldnt allow for such loopholes. This is why/how TOE never made it
in the kernel.
