[dpdk-dev] [PATCH V3 1/4] table: add support learner tables

Cristian Dumitrescu cristian.dumitrescu at intel.com
Sat Aug 14 15:59:46 CEST 2021


A learner table is typically used for learning or connection tracking,
where it allows for the implementation of the "add on miss" scenario:
whenever the lookup key is not found in the table (lookup miss), the
data plane can decide to add this key to the table with a given action
with no control plane intervention. Likewise, the table keys expire
based on a configurable timeout and are automatically deleted from the
table with no control plane intervention.

Depends-on: series-18023 ("[V2,1/5] pipeline: prepare for variable size headers")

V2: fixed one "line too long" coding style warning.
