Thank you for sharing the patches. > Three major issues we are worried: > a. Megaflow support in BPF. > b. Connection Tracking support in BPF. my opinion on the above two didn't change. To recap: A. Non scalable megaflow map is no go. I'd like to see packet classification algorithm like hicuts or efficuts to be implemented instead, since it can be shared by generic bpf, bpftiler, ovs and likely others. B. instead of helpers to interface with conntrack the way ovs did, I prefer a generic conntrack mechanism that can be used out of xdp too > c. Verifier limitation. Not sure what limitations you're concerned about. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
