Hello,

I have been trying to add two new actions which when matched send
port_statistics and flow statistics to the controller when a matching
packet is received.

The port statistics action is working but the flow_statistics action is
causing a deadlock which I am trying to figure out how to avoid. The
deadlock occurs when the controller sends a matching packet in the packet
out message. The functions handle_flow_stats_request() and
handle_packet_out()  in ofproto/ofproti.c both acquire a lock on the mutex
 ofproto_mutex.

Can someone suggest how I could proceed?
