[ovs-dev] [PATCH ovn v3 0/3] Optimize logical flow generation for reject ACLs.

[numans at ovn.org]

From: Numan Siddique <numans at ovn.org>

This patch series improves the reject ACL logical flow generation by
reducing the number of logical flows for the reject ACL. A new OVN
action - reject is added for this. Now only 1 lflow is added per each
reject ACL.


v2 -> v3
----
  * Dropped the patch 2 of v2 from the series as per the review comments
    and discussions. Patch 1 of v3 now swaps the IP src with IP dst and
    Eth src with Eth destination in the reject action itself.

  * Added a new patch 'p3' to the series which adds IPv6 support to
    execute_tcp_reset() in ovn-trace which was missing earlier as reported
    by Dumitru.

v1 -> v2
------
  * Patch 1 and 2 of v1 are merged.
  * Adddressed the review comment from Mark in patch 2 to return if
    there is any parse error while parsing OVN fields.

Numan Siddique (3):
  actions: Add a new OVN action - reject {}.
  ovn-northd: Optimize logical flow generation for reject ACLs.
  ovn-trace: Handle IPv6 packets for tcp_reset action.
