Subject: ovsdb: Add "comment" feature to transactions and make ovs-vsctl use them.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d171b5846f4988e66c45a6ed5998bbaef82571f9;p=openvswitch

ovsdb: Add "comment" feature to transactions and make ovs-vsctl use them.

The idea here is that transaction comments get copied to the ovsdb-server's
transaction log, which can then make it clear later why a particular change
was made to the database, to ease debugging.
