Subject: openvswitch: correct encoding of set tunnel action attributes
From: Simon Horman <[email protected]>
[ Upstream commit e905eabc90a5b787d8708df164543ee295bea5f2 ]
In a set action tunnel attributes should be encoded in a nested action.
I noticed this because ovs-dpctl was reporting an error when dumping flows due to the incorrect encoding of tunnel attributes in a set action.
