No need to restart DB / OVS on changing dscp value.

With this change there is no need to restart the DB or OVS on configuring a
different value for the manager or controller connection respectively. On
detecting a change in the dscp value on the socket, the previous socket is
closed and a new socket is created and connection is established with the new
configured dscp value.

datapath: Make 'struct work_struct' consistent with kernel definition.

From kernel 3.4 netdevice structure has delayed_work in
net_device->pm_qos_req. delayed_work needs work_struct definition.
OVS has its own workq implementation which redefines work_struct.
So we need to make it consistent with work_struct defined
in kernel workqueue.h to have correct net_device definition.

This reverts commit cd8fca2ba0a7d036da069a4484d501bdc7a6f611 (jsonrpc:

b2e18db292cd4962af3248f11e9f17e6eaf9c033 (No need to restart DB / OVS on

failures that valgrind diagnoses as:

ofproto-dpif-governor: Wake up only when there is genuinely work to do.

Until now, governor_wait() has awakened the poll loop whenever the
generation timer expires, to allow it to shrink the governor to the next
smaller size in governor_run().  However, if the governor is already the
smallest possible size, then governor_run() will not have anything to do
and will not restart the timer, which means that governor_wait() will again
immediately wake up the poll loop, and we end up using 100% CPU.

This is kind of hard to trigger because normally the client will destroy
a governor in such a case.  However, if there are too many subfacets, the
client will keep even a minimum-size governor, triggering the bug.

Bug #12106.

docs: Add references to the database schema documentation.

I field lots of questions about "where's the documentation?"  Perhaps this
will help.

The changes to ovs-vsctl(8) add a couple of references to
ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5) but they also rephrase a couple of paragraphs in
what seems to me an easier to understand style.

cfm: Warn when delayed sending CCMs.

We've recently seen problems where OVS can get delayed sending CCM

generally wreak havoc.  It's easy to detect when this is happening,
so minimally, warning should be helpful to those debugging
problems.

Change set of 502c471406b32e5afcdea62fa8307f9856d05437 added IntegrationGuide,

pinsched: Completely fill the token bucket at initialization.

This code, which dates to August 2008, initially sets the packet-in
scheduler token buckets to 10% full, without any rationale.  I suspect
that this is just a typo for 100% full, which I think would be more
conventional, so this commit switches to that.
