Hi Eli,
From what has been discussed so far it follows that JUMP from group 0
to the very same group 0 is intentional and corresponds to
dp_netdev_recirculate. But could you please clarify, is OvS supposed to
always use the group value of 0 with the tunnel offload model? In other
words, can PMD expect the OvS to always insert "tunnel set" and "tunnel
match" rules at group 0?
Can the PMD always expect OvS to use priority level of 0, too?
Hi Ivan,
Thanks for your comments.
In the proposed series, yes. OVS will always insert tunnel-set and
tunnel-match rules in group 0, and in priority 0.
However, the PMD and DPDK in general are not OVS specific, and other
applications may choose to use in other ways, so the PMD must not assume
such assumptions.
A brief comment in the code would be useful, too.
Yes, I will add it in v3 to be sent soon.
