Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 1/2] selftests: openvswitch: add vlan() and encap() flow string parsing
Date: Sun, 3 May 2026 20:09:45 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260503120946.51869-2-houminxi@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260503120946.51869-1-houminxi@gmail.com>
Add VLAN TCI formatting and parsing support to ovs-dpctl.py:
- Add _vlan_dpstr() to decompose TCI into vid/pcp/cfi fields,
with raw tci=0x%04x fallback when cfi=0 for round-trip safety.
- Add _parse_vlan_from_flowstr() boundary check for missing ')'.
- Add encap_ovskey subclass restricting nla_map to L2-L4 attributes
(slots 0-21) that appear inside 802.1Q ENCAP, with metadata
attributes set to "none".
- Check parse() return value for unrecognized trailing content.
- Support callable format functions in dpstr() output.
