Hi Darrell, thanks for the patch. Can you add a sentence or two to the commit message, please, explaining the motivation or the goal for the patch? It's not clear to me whether this is a performance optimization, or a cleanup, or a fix for a race, etc. This information helps review the patch and it also helps people looking through the history tracking down a bug etc. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
