Hello,
but in finction: netdev_linux_listen(struct netdev *netdev_) on
netdev_linux.c file inside lib, they have sockets open to the interfaces.
Where it receive a packet and copy to memory. It reads the memory content
only when packet reach the exact length of the packet, for example 1500
bytes, and if reach this number send the packet - like store-and-forward.
Using this I think may be possible to implement cut-trhough, because we
may start sending in the exact moment we receive.
Advises will be very appreciated.
Regards,
Marco

For what I understand the openvSwitch works in store-and-forward mode
using linux kernel.
Can someone tell me where is the buffer and the files that are connected
and do or treats the store-and-forward on openvswitch sources. Where is
this done?
Can someone tell me if is in mind an cut-through implementation for
openvSwitch? I was thinking in do something like that.
Open vSwitch is a software switch. As far as I know
yourcharacterizations do not apply to software switches.
