Subject: ofproto-dpif: Avoid searching all subfacets when creating first in a facet.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3b145dd7c001eb22f520b5ffd4179aaec59ebffe;p=openvswitch

ofproto-dpif: Avoid searching all subfacets when creating first in a facet.

When we create the first subfacet within a facet, we know that there
cannot be an existing subfacet with the same key, so we can skip the search
through the ofproto's table of subfacets.

This is a small optimization, but it should not affect the flow setup rate
in most benchmarks, because in the stressful situations that benchmarks
create, OVS does not set up flows.
