[ovs-dev] [PATCH 4/4] datapath: Implement recirc action without recursion

2014-08-15 Thread Andy Zhou
Since kernel stack is limited in size, it is not wise to using recursive function with large stack frames. This patch provides an alternative implementation of recirc action with out using recursion. A recirc action can be embedded in the middle of an actions list. Instead of immediately (and rec
