Hi Ben,
Thanks for the review.

agree. hexadecimal makes more sense.

Yes, now I understand FLOW_WC_SEQ is to remind you to add code there.

Yes, make sense.
I think both fields tun_gtpu_flags,tun_gtpu_msgtype can be read-only.

good catch, thanks

OK, will fix it

good catch, thanks

I didn't test it.
Here we only support GTP-U msgtype=255 (G-PDU).
For other GTP-U messages, (ex: echo req/response), users should use
OpenFlow rules to match it and send to their application.
