Subject: Setting miss_send_len on receiving NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG message.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4550b6475456b7b2e44ab464434f03aacdb9f33d;p=openvswitch

Setting miss_send_len on receiving NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG message.

For the service controllers to receive any asynchronous messages, the
miss_send_len must be set to a non-zero value (refer to DESIGN).  On
receiving the NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG message, the miss_send_len is set
to the default value unless it is set to a non-zero value earlier by
the OFPT_SET_CONFIG message.

 First, a service controller never receives any asynchronous messages
-unless it explicitly configures a miss_send_len greater than zero with
-an OFPT_SET_CONFIG message.
+unless it changes its miss_send_len from the service controller
+default of zero in one of the following ways:
+
+    - Sending an OFPT_SET_CONFIG message with nonzero miss_send_len.

+    - Sending any NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG message: as a side effect, this

+      OFP_DEFAULT_MISS_SEND_LEN (128) for service controllers.
 
 Second, OFPT_FLOW_REMOVED and NXT_FLOW_REMOVED messages are generated
 only if the flow that was removed had the OFPFF_SEND_FLOW_REM flag
