Hi, all
I read the source in kernel mode, the function named 'ovs_nla_put_flow', and I
see when the eth.type is ETH_P_8021Q
but eth.tci is 0, the OVS_KEY_ATTR_ENCAP field will only have a header but no
nested fields.
But I don't think this is one correct case because I think if the eth.type is
ETH_P_8021Q the tci should not be 0.
Could you explain why?
Looking forward for your reply. Thanks.
int ovs_nla_put_flow(const struct sw_flow_key *swkey,
const struct sw_flow_key *output, struct sk_buff *skb)
{
(...skip....)
if (swkey->eth.tci || swkey->eth.type == htons(ETH_P_8021Q)) {
__be16 eth_type;
eth_type = !is_mask ? htons(ETH_P_8021Q) : htons(0xffff);
if (nla_put_be16(skb, OVS_KEY_ATTR_ETHERTYPE, eth_type) ||
nla_put_be16(skb, OVS_KEY_ATTR_VLAN, output->eth.tci))
goto nla_put_failure;
encap = nla_nest_start(skb, OVS_KEY_ATTR_ENCAP);
if (!swkey->eth.tci)
goto unencap;
} else
encap = NULL;
(...skip....)
unencap:
if (encap)
nla_nest_end(skb, encap);
return 0;
nla_put_failure:
return -EMSGSIZE;
}

Hi, all
I want to ask a question about the function parse_8021q_onward.
(...skip...)

if (!(present_attrs & (UINT64_C(1) << OVS_KEY_ATTR_VLAN))) {
return ODP_FIT_TOO_LITTLE;

/* Corner case for a truncated 802.1Q header. */
if (fitness == ODP_FIT_PERFECT && nl_attr_get_size(encap)) {
return ODP_FIT_TOO_MUCH;
}
return fitness; ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
} else if (!(flow->vlan_tci & htons(VLAN_CFI))) {
VLOG_ERR_RL(&rl, "OVS_KEY_ATTR_VLAN 0x%04"PRIx16" is nonzero "
"but CFI bit is not set", ntohs(flow->vlan_tci));
return ODP_FIT_ERROR;
}
}

Why the ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ return directly without parsing the IP and Transport
Level header.
Looking forward to your reply.
Thanks.
