Commit Message

Ales Musil May 23, 2024, 1:57 p.m. UTC
Add support for limitng the CT zone usage per Ls, LR or LSP.
When the limit is configured on logical switch it will also implicitly
set limits for all ports in that logical switch. The port configuration
can be overwritten individually and has priority over the whole logical
switch configuration.

The value 0 means unlimited, when the value is not specified it is
derived from OvS default CT limit specified for given OvS datapath.
