Hai ,

Query: How is parent table information interpreted from the received "OVSDB 
notification" .
Analysis:

In openvswitch code ,vswitch daemon waits for the notifications from OVSDB 
.After receiving the notification it is parsing   and updates the database 
accordingly.

>From my code walk through I see the notification is  just giving info about 
>table,row and column that need to be updated .
Here I am listing down the API's for reference:

ovsdb_idl_run(This API will receive the notification if there is any 
configuration update)

ovsdb_idl_parse_update__(This API is extracting information about particular 
table and row which need to be configured)

ovsdb_idl_process_update(This API is deriving the action(add/mod/del) to be 
performed)

ovsdb_idl_row_update(This API will update the columns of table accordingly)
For example deleting a flowtable in a bridge is the notification which we 
received , code is interpreting  delete flowtable  x from table Flowtable  but 
how will we get the information from which bridge we need to perform this 
deletion.
Can anyone help me on how to get that info from received notification and let 
me know if my understanding is wrong.
