[ovs-dev] [PATCH v4 0/1] Send notifications after the transaction ends

[Terry Wilson]

Ok, I think this is likely to be the final iteration of the patch as we
are down to the typos.

In Neutron, we process these notifications in a separate thread. So what
that means is that we were experiencing race conditions where sometimes
the notification's row would have a value set, and other times it
wouldn't. In fixing some other race conditions related to that event
processing thread, we tried to add a read-only copy of the Row object
and that actually turned the race condition into a consistent failure on
py27 due to the table_updates dict not maintaining insertion-order, but
consistently putting Logical_Router_Port before Gateway_Chassis. In py3
things could still fail as in the test case provided, e.g. if rows
referenced each other in the same transaction, or depending on the order
in which ovsdb-server adds the updates.
