I'm trying to get if an interface is attached to a vswitch and to what switch 
is attached.

Let me put this a little bit of context here, I want to use hostapd with ovs; 
the challenge here is hostapd needs to register the interfaces that will 
recieve EAPOL in order to authenticate the wireless hosts. To register the 
interface the current devel version hostapd will try to get the master 
interface from /sys/class/net/<interface>/master; the problem with ovs is that 
it will return "ovs-system" interface, but this is not the actual vswitch 
interface.

So the question here, is there a way to get to what vswitch is attached the 
interface without using the ovs commands?

Thanks
