[ovs-dev] [learning 0/6] first draft of "learning" series

[Ben Pfaff]

This series adds a new "learn" action that controllers can use to
do more flexible learning than is possible by outputting to the
OFPP_NORMAL port.  The final commit is still more or less untested;
I'm working on that now.  I think that the rest are ready for
review.

Ben Pfaff (6):
  ofp-util: New function for parsing key-value pairs.
  ofproto: Avoid using list_size() to compute length of 'pending' list.
  ofproto: Add 'ofproto' parameter to most flow_mod functions.
  ofproto: Mark some parameters 'const'.
  meta-flow: New library for working with fields by id.
  Implement new "learn" action.
