* auto-attach: Initial support for Auto-Attach standardDennis Flynn2015-03-031-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit provides the initial delivery of support for the Auto-Attach standard to Open vSwitch. This standard describes a compact method of using IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) with a IEEE 802.1aq Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) network to automatically attach network devices not supporting IEEE 802.1ah to individual services in a SPB network. Specifically this commit adds base LLDP support to OVS along with the LLDP extension required to support Auto-Attach. The base LLDP code within this commit is adapted from the open source LLDPD project headed by Vincent Bernat. This base code is augmented with OVS specific logic which integrates LLDP into OVS and which extends LLDP to support Auto-Attach. The required build system changes are provided to include this new Auto-Attach feature. This is the first of a series of commits. Subsequent commits will be provided to complete the task of adding Auto-Attach to OVS.

* netdev implementation for FreeBSDGiuseppe Lettieri2012-07-261-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds new netdev classes that implement "system" and "tap" devices on FreeBSD using the libpcap library. This enables the use of the "netdev" datapath_type of Open vSwitch on FreeBSD.

* Fix manpage-check on RHEL 5.Ben Pfaff2011-10-271-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | The version of groff on RHEL 5 doesn't include the .SY, .OP, or .YS macros that ovs-benchmark.1 uses, so the manpage-check target fails on that platform. This commit adds the groff definitions of those macros to a file and includes it into ovs-benchmark.1. I tested that this allows RHEL 5 to pass manpage-check.
* Replace SHA-1 library with one that is clearly licensed.Ben Pfaff2009-06-151-0/+15
The SHA-1 library that we used until now was taken from RFC 3174. That library has no clearly free license statement, only a license on the text of the RFC. This commit replaces this library with a modified version of the code from the Apache Portable Runtime library from apr.apache.org, which is licensed under the Apache 2.0 license, the same as the rest of Open vSwitch.
