Re: New message count for Openflow Java in ODL master (Boron)

Hi Michal,

Thanks for your reply.

Indeed the formula indicated by you gives the expected value !!
So it obviates the implementation of a new counter.

However following new thoughts emerge.

Do we really need the counts DS_ENTERED_OFJAVA and DS_ENCODE_SUCCESS ?

Maintaining these two counts (for every message) is costly in terms of performance (due to need for synchronization).

I think we should have counts only for the error scenarios resulting least influence on the performance.

BTW, my goal is to simplify the debugging process to find out whenever/wherever there is a message drop due to resource contention. Message drop count will provide an essential input to rationalize the provisioning of resources. 

Thanks and Regards,
Chinmay @ ericsson

Hello Chinmay,


is it really needed to add such counter ? One can get this number by DS_ENTERED_OFJAVA - (DS_ENCODE_SUCCESS + DS_ENCODE_FAIL) if only OutboundQueue is used. This counter looses its meaning when OutboundQueueManager is used as the manager enqueues all messages and the message count is controlled byt rpcQuota in openflowplugin.


Regards,

Michal

Subject: [openflowjava-dev] New message count for Openflow Java in ODL master (Boron)
 
Hi all,

To supplement present testing and diagnosing scenarios using message counts, I am proposing following new count.

Count name : DS_DROPPED_PACKET_QFULL
Purpose : To count messages dropped because the queue present in ChannelOutboundQueue is full. This count will be helpful to mark the threshold downstream message processing capability of Openflow Java. Downsizing/upsizing resources surrounding this counter will decrease/increase downstream message processing capability.

Implementation implications:

This new count will be implemented using existing counter module StatisticsCounters.

Please share your comments (if any ).

Thanks and Regards,
Chinmay @ ericsson
