Hello people,

I apologise for my stupid questions. I am learning to my best.

Let me re frame my question in a better way.

I want to know about the granularity of flow matching in the EMC. Here I
have observed and read some facts about the matching flow. Can you please
help me correct  if I am wrong.

*1. The below packet arrived, from these header field's miniflow will be
extracted, right?*

* |dpif_netdev(pmd8)|DBG|packet:
tcp,vlan_tci=0x0000,dl_src=00:00:00:00:00:01,dl_dst=00:00:00:00:00:02,nw_src=10.0.0.3,nw_dst=10.0.0.4,nw_tos=0,nw_ecn=0,nw_ttl=64,tp_src=35963,
 tp_dst=45629,tcp_flags=ack
tcp_csum:f470*

*2. I am confused a bit on this point, miniflow_extract() will output a map
by setting 1s for the fields extracted. Fields extracted in this case will
be which fields? Are those dl_src,dl_dst, nw_src, nw_dst, nw_ttl,
tp_src,  tp_dst,tcp_flags tcp_csum , omitting nw_tos and nw_ecn? If yes,
EMC Cache has an entry which is referencing to the flows containing all
these fields?*




Please help me with this, I want to confirm and clear this before I share
my knowledge with anyone else as I don't wanna provide my wrong input to
anyone and this mailing list is the only hope.

Thank you so much.

Hi Everyone

>From Debug information of EMC Processing , I can see the packets have IPs
as well as Ports. Packet information is below :

*|dpif_netdev(pmd8)|DBG|packet:
tcp,vlan_tci=0x0000,dl_src=00:00:00:00:00:01,dl_dst=00:00:00:00:00:02,nw_src=10.0.0.3,nw_dst=10.0.0.4,nw_tos=0,nw_ecn=0,nw_ttl=64,tp_src=35963,tp_dst=45629,tcp_flags=ack
tcp_csum:f470*

>From the above packet, are all the fields that are displayed will be used
to search in EMC Cache including checksum?

Please correct my knowledge.

Regards and Thanks
