Hi all
We are in the process of changing the PFT policy hook. Currently the
policy set only implements the following function:
int (* next_hop)(struct pft_ps * ps,
struct pci * pci,
port_id_t ** ports,
size_t * count);
/* Reference used to access the PFT data model. */
struct pft * dm;
and uses dm to access the PFT implementation that is still in pft.c,
which is a table that consists of entries that map destination to a list
of next hops. However, since the PFT implementation depends on the table
being used (for instance for LFA, this is a table with a normal port-id
and an alternate port-id), the policy set should be extended to keep the
table in its internal implementation. It should have extra functions for
instance to parse the PDUMODFWD message. I will be performing changes to
the pft policy set API and move code from pft.c to the default pft
policy set.
Kind regards
Sander
