Eitan,

Ok I will add it in the datapath.

Why I am considering it as a hack, because if we see it in the datapath we just 
reply with an error, there will be no logic behind it at the moment. But maybe 
it makes some sense to have it for further user.

Alin.

Alin,
We just need to add:
        [OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE] = { .type = NLA_FLAG }, to the flow policy. This 
is not a hack.
If it is time consuming please go ahead with the uder mode change.
Thanks,
Eitan

Both are hacks IMO. 

We could respond to DPIF_FP_PROBE but I prefer to do it in userspace until we 
address the bigger problem in the datapath.

That’s a good suggestion. We can go with Alin’s solution for 2.4 since we 
exactly know what code we will be disabling, and work on the flow validation 
logic for master.

thanks,
