[ovs-dev] [PATCH V5 2/2] bfd: Implement forwarding_if_rx.

Thu Aug 22 22:44:23 UTC 2013
This commit adds a new boolean option "forwarding_if_rx" to bfd.
When forwarding_if_rx is true the interface will be considered
capable of packet I/O as long as there is packet received at
interface. This is important in that when link becomes temporarily
conjested, consecutive BFD control packets can be lost. And the
forwarding_if_rx can prevent link failover by detecting non-control
packets received at interface.

v4 -> v5:
- add time/stop to unit tests.
v3 -> v4:
- rebase to master.
v2 -> v3:
- fix typo in commit log.
- fix indentation in bfd_forwarding__().
- refine the return logic in bfd_forwarding__().
v1 -> v2:
- update the forwarding_if_rx_detect_time when netdev is changed.
- use rate-limited log function.
- refine the commit log and vswitchd.xml.
- add unit test for situation when both forwarding_if_rx and bfd
decay are enabled.
