[ovs-dev] [PATCH net-next] openvswitch: Provide OVS_DP_ATTR_UPCALL_PID in datapath messages

Thomas Graf tgraf at suug.ch
Tue Apr 2 22:28:29 UTC 2013


The upcall port configured when adding a new datapath is currently
only provided to user space as part of the vport message. Therefore
user space has to request two separate messages which is prone to
race conditions.

Provide the upcall port of the local port (0) of a data path in the
datapath message to gain symmetry between the SET and GET command.
