Hello everyone, I was looking into OVS code and need few clarifications.
1) why does Revalidate thread dynamically changing the flow_limit so that it limits the number of data path flows If dump duration is taking more then 1sec. Is it because when we add the rule from the controller, It has to be applied to all the data path rules with in particular time? With this, we can not scale much right? 2) idle time to delete the data path flow by default is 10sec. is there any reason or calculation for this? 3) To know the number of currently installed rules in data path, OVS is getting from kernel modules. In case, if we offload the flows to hardware or any other application, this number always 0. So This channel has to be changed in case of offload scenarios right? Thanks & Regards, Sathya.
