Hello,
In openvswitch, is there something similar to the NF_HOOK? Bascially, I'm
looking for a method to register an action handling function that is
implemented by another kernel module.
No, Open vSwitch is designed to be driven by userspace and arbitrary
hooks prevent that from happening. It sounds like you want to use
Netfilter instead.
Just a double check--are you saying that I can use netfilter? I was
trying to filter on NF_BR_FORWARD but my callback hook did not get
called at all. During the debug, I try to find NF_HOOK calls in the
openvswitch code, since they used to be called from bridge module, But I
did not find any of them. Not sure if I have missed something or got
some wrong ideas about the netfilter code.
Thanks
Yi
