Subject: cfg: Log changes to config, not whole config, in cfg_read().
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7d99a750bc2da47e92b7140d6e51cab972749012;p=openvswitch

cfg: Log changes to config, not whole config, in cfg_read().

The configuration file is re-read on a regular basis by brcompatd and
vswitchd in practice.  When debug-level logging is enabled on the cfg
module, it was logging the entire config file each time.  Not only is this
a waste of log-file space, it's difficult for humans to see what actually
changed, if anything.

So this commit changes cfg_read() to log a diff instead of the whole config
file.
