Billy, Can you please refer me to the code where we start the megaflow creation to the kernel upon an upcall, and where we send it to the kernel via the netlink socket ? what i want to do is - to generate megaflows, based on openflow tables, not neccesararily upon an upcall, that is not reactive mode and to send to the kernel. Another question is, who is responsible to associate a specific megaflow to the appropriate table in the cache ? is it the kernel module or vswitchd ? Thank you -Sara
