[PATCH net-next v2 5/9] net: openvswitch: add emit_sample action

From: Adrian Moreno
Date: Mon Jun 03 2024 - 14:58:15 EST


Add support for a new action: emit_sample.

This action accepts a u32 group id and a variable-length cookie and uses
the psample multicast group to make the packet available for
observability.

The maximum length of the user-defined cookie is set to 16, same as
tc_cookie, to discourage using cookies that will not be offloadable.
