[spp] [PATCH v4 00/14] spp-ctl: SPP controller with Web API

[oda at valinux.co.jp]

From: Itsuro Oda <oda at valinux.co.jp>

spp-ctl is a SPP controller with a REST like web API.

spp-ctl maintains the connections from the SPP processes and at
the same time exposes the API for the user to request for the
SPP processes.

Background and motivation:

Current CLI (spp.py/spp_vf.py) can be used by intaractive only.
Therefore, spp-agent, a component of networking-spp which make
SPP available on OpenStack environment, implements SPP controller
in itself. (see. https://github.com/openstack/networking-spp )

Either CLI or spp-agent, there is a problem that other people can
not request to SPP processes while using. spp-ctl is invented to
solve this problem.

Both CLI and spp-agent can be used spp-ctl to request SPP
processes instead of owning contoroller itself. In that case,
multiple people can request to SPP processes at the same time.
Note that spp-agent has a plan to change to use spp-ctl.
It is also available not using CLI but requesting spp-ctl
directly.
