Hi Ryan, a few broad comments:
Could you split this into two patches, the dpif interface change and the
dpif-netdev implementation change?
I'm a little uneasy about the change to the dpif_flow_dump_next()
interface, just because the size of the output parameter was previously
paired with the outp
Previously, flows were retrieved one by one when dumping flows for
datapaths of type 'netdev'. This increased contention for the dump's
mutex, negatively affecting revalidator performance.
This patch retrieves batches of flows when dumping flows for datapaths
of type 'netdev'.
