I want to ask one question about patch port and flooding.
The topology used is below:
namespace 1(tap516ed44b-29) --br-int--br-tun
I ping an unreachable address 192.168.10.20 from 192.168.10.2(namespace port
tap516ed44b-29),so the arp flow is installed in kernel.
But the action is "push_vlan(vid=2,pcp=0),1,pop_vlan,11,13".
I wonder why the patch port is not flooded to?
The details is bellow:
# ovs-dpctl dump-flows
skb_priority(0),in_port(9),eth(src=fa:16:3e:49:a8:9b,dst=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff),eth_type(0x0806),arp(sip=192.168.10.2/255.255.255.255,tip=192.168.10.20/255.255.255.255,op=1/0xff,sha=fa:16:3e:49:a8:9b/00:00:00:00:00:00,tha=00:00:00:00:00:00/00:00:00:00:00:00),

Is the patch port special?
