[ovs-dev] [PATCH V2 1/4] bfd: Implement BFD decay.
Alex Wang

Tue Aug 6 15:51:15 UTC 2013
When there is no incoming data traffic at the interface for a period,
BFD decay allows the bfd session to increase the min_rx. This is
helpful in that some interfaces may be idle for long a time. And cpu
consumption can be reduced by processing fewer bfd control packets.
Signed-off-by: Alex Wang <alexw at nicira.com>
---
v1 -> v2:
- add 'in_decay' boolean variable to bfd struct
and simplify code.
- include unit test to this patch.
