[ovs-dev] [PATCH ovn v9 0/5] ovn-controller: Split logical flow and physical flow processing

[numans at ovn.org]

From: Numan Siddique <numans at ovn.org>

This series splits the logical flow and physical flow processing
and also handles the runtime data changes for the ct zone engine data.

New patch p2 is added in v9 to handle sbrec_chassis changes in
pflow_output and lflow_output engine nodes.

The patches 2-4 added in v8 are now 3-5 in v9.

v8 -> v9
----
  * Addressed review comments from Han.  Removed the noop handlers
    for some of the engine inputs.
  * Added a new patch - p2 to handle sbrec_chassis changes in
    pflow_output and lflow_output engine nodes.

v7 -> v8
----
  * Added the ct zones I-P for datapath and runtime data changes.
  * Removed the noop_handler for runtime data changes in pflow engine
    node.  Now there is no handler for runtime data changes for the
    pflow engine node.

v6 -> v7
----
  * Added comments on usage of noop_handler for a couple
    of engine inputs as suggested by Han.
  * Addressed other review comments from Han.
  * Added the check to handle the flow changes if 'skipped_last_time'
    is true in ofctrl_put().

v5 -> v6
----
  * Missed out checking in the uncommitted code in ofctrl.c in v4. v5
    fixes it.
  * v5 accidently modified ovs submodule commit id. v6 reverts it.

v4 -> v5
-----
  * Addressed Han's comments.

v3 -> v4
-----
  * Addressed Mark G's comments.
  * Rebased to resolve conflicts.

v2 -> v3
-----
  * Rebased to resolve conflicts.

v1 -> v2
-----
  * Rebased to resolve conflicts.

  ovn-controller: Split logical flow and physical flow processing.
  controller: Handle sbrec_chassis changes in lflow and pflow output
    engines.
  ovn-controller: Handle datapath changes incrementally for ct zone I-P
    engine node.
  physical: Set the port binding uuid as cookie for flows where
    relevant.
  controller I-P: ct zone runtime data handler.
