I'm not 100% sure what you want to do, but a packet-in is generated
when a packet matches a flow that has a controller action.
A packet-in is always sent to a controller. You can implement a
packet-in handler that does the job you described above, and the
handler can send back a flowmod message to the switch to program
flows.
