We need to figure out whether this is the best approach. If it is, then my only comment is that it's not easy to guess what the value of "last_seen" means from its name (or the comment in the struct). I think that something like "n_misses" would better express the meaning. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
