[ovs-discuss] OpenVSwitch flow forwarding

[Masood Moshref Javadi]

I want to figure out the workflow of a packet in the openvswitch (using the
kernel module). Basically, I have these questions:
1) When a flow comes where it will be compared to the rules?
2) Is there any difference between rules with wildcard field and exact
rules?
3) what is the effect of huge number of rules on the performance of
openvswitch


Thanks in advance
Masoud
