I would like to see splited patch series:
1- the features only so it can be used with Linux kernel, BSD, etc...
2- ovsdb related ones, json,
so it'll be easier to understand. The current OpenSwitch Quagga trie is
mixing both.
Yes, there's a bunch of other stuff in there too.
First, starting with 1- would help to understand the remaining part for 2-
I think there's an architecture discussion that can be had, without having
to have the "cleaned up and rebased onto head, ready to be applied"
patches. Though, the link to the diff can still be used to guage roughly
the extent of what's being proposed. Which is basically:
- Replace the code serialising between telnet/Zserv and internal state
with code to do so to the OVSDB embedded DB, via the the OVSDB API.
(I could see a case for writing a lighter API to the OVSDB protocol
though, but the OVS OVSDB-API mods exist, at least for bgpd and ospfd;
and there's a bunch of engineers who understand that API and
could help port the rest of the protocols).
- not done in OPS I think, but move the old telnet/string-vty code out to
old files, make it build-time conditional, and deprecate.
- Replace vtysh/ with the OpenSwitch ops-cli vtysh, which uses OVSDB.
- Potentially suck in the OPS ReST daemon?
