Victor Julien	94cb52897b	flow: introduce FlowRecycler stub ... FlowRecycler thread stub. Start/stop code.	12 years ago
Ken Steele	592d48aab7	Use Spin locks on Tile ... On Tile, replace pthread_mutex_locks with queued spin locks (ticket locks) for dataplane processing code. This is safe when running on dataplane cores with one thread per core. The condition variables are no-ops when the thread is spinning anyway. For control plane threads, unix-manager, stats-logs, thread startup, use pthread_mutex_locks. For these locks replaced SCMutex with SCCtrlMutex and SCCond with SCCtrlCond.	12 years ago
Victor Julien	0150e66ede	flow engine: improve scalability ... Major redesign of the flow engine. Remove the flow queues that turned out to be major choke points when using many threads. Flow manager now walks the hash table directly. Simplify the way we get a new flow in case of emergency.	14 years ago

Anoop Saldanha	5133098bd6	Accomodate pcap-file mode to signal flow mgr to wakeup when it exceeds a certain time interval. This let's the flow mgr keep in sync with pcap timestamp changes	14 years ago
Eric Leblond	5a63662766	Flow: use condition system instead of short sleep ... Short sleep can lead to some really annoying performance issue in some environnement like virtual systems. This technic was used in the flow manager. This patch uses an alternate approach based on a timed condition which is triggered each time a new flow has to be created. This avoid to run out of flow. A counter is also done to be able not to run the cleaning code at each new flow.	14 years ago
