[ovs-dev] [PATCH ovn v2 0/3] uuid-based conjunction id generation.

[Han Zhou]

It is important to keep conjunction IDs consistent between runs to avoid
unnecessary OVS flows deletion and reinstallation. However, There are two
problems of the current lflow-cache based conjunction id peristent approach.

1) When n_conjs changes, the cached conj_id_ofs can overlap with other lflows.
2) When lflow-cache is not enabled, conjunction id is not consistent across
runs.

This series replace the lflow-cache based approach by a new way of conjunction
id generation which keeps the ids consistent regardless of the lflow-cache
enablement.

Han Zhou (3):
  lflow-cache.h: Fix comment about lflow-cache.
  lflow-cache: Remove conjunction id cache.
  lflow: Consistent conjunction id generation.
