Hi All, I am trying to understand the OVS kernel module which implements the datapath. I have few questions regarding the kernel module.
How the kernel flow table is populated? Is it via ovs-vswtchd daemon through netlink sockets? If it is through netlink sockets, how can we add/del/set/get the flows to/from kernel module through userspace commands such as ovs-ofctl or ovs-dpctl? When we add a new bridge, is there any default flow created in the kernel flow table? I observed this when I add a bridge using ovs-vsctl. I am trying to add the flows using ovs-ofctl, but they are not going to the kernel module. What is the reason for this? -- Thanks & Regards Neelakantam Gaddam
