OpenFlow has a virtual port for the controller (OFPP_CONTROLLER). If you add an output action to your entry which specifies it as the output port, packets hitting the entry will be sent to the controller (similar as to when there's a table miss). If you don't do this, packets hitting the entry won't be sent to the controller.
