Hi, All

The document of ovs says the datapath is a flow-based software switch. A flow 
consists of many packets. Datapath needs to handle every packet. When it does't 
match any datapath flows, it will do upcall. Vswitchd needs to handle upcalls 
and send netlink messages to datapath to install the datapath flows. But before 
the datapath flows are added, another packet of the same flow arrived, will the 
packet be upcalled? That means if I send packets at faster rate, more upcalls 
will be expected?

Thank you!
