[ovs-dev] [PATCH v12 0/9] Add incremental processing

[Ryan Moats]

From: RYAN D. MOATS <rmoats at us.ibm.com>

Delta from v11 has more optimizations based on the profiling work
done by Lei Huang and Han Zhou from eBay.

In patch 2/9, we only need to check for a OF rule whose match is
"close" to the proposed OF rule via the UUID hash during a modification
operation.  This saves allocating a hash in memory, makes the 
lookup quicker, and avoids calling it unnecessarily.  In addition
some of the changes in patch 5 were pulled forward to patch 2 of the
series to avoid the changes to patches 2 and 5 in v10, making them
cleaner

RYAN D. MOATS (9):
  Fix missing tracking reording of row deletes.
  Make flow table persistent in ovn controller
  Persist lport and mcgroup indexes
  Persist local_datapaths
  Add incremental proessing to lflow_run
  Change encaps_run to work incrementally
  Convert binding_run to incremental processing.
  Reset lflow processing when adding/removing patch ports
  Change physical_run to incremental processing
