Method Detail

tag

protected String tag()

Returns an identifying tag for the action factory.

Specified by:

tag in class AbstractFactory

Returns:

an identifying tag

parseAction

public static Action parseAction(OfPacketReader pkt,
                 ProtocolVersion pv)
                          throws MessageParseException

Parses a single action from the supplied buffer. Note that this method causes the reader index of the underlying PacketBuffer to be advanced by the length of the action.

Parameters:

pkt - the data buffer

pv - the protocol version

Returns:

a parsed action

Throws:

MessageParseException - if unable to parse the action

parseActionList

public static List<Action> parseActionList(int targetRi,
                           OfPacketReader pkt,
                           ProtocolVersion pv)
                                    throws MessageParseException

Parses a list of action structures from the supplied buffer. The caller must calculate and specify the target reader index of the buffer that marks the end of the list, so we know when to stop.

Note that this method causes the reader index of the underlying PacketBuffer to be advanced by the length of the list, which should leave the reader index at targetRi.

Parameters:

targetRi - the target reader index

pkt - the data buffer

pv - the protocol version

Returns:

a list of parsed actions

Throws:

MessageParseException - if unable to parse the structure

parseActionHeaders

public static List<Action> parseActionHeaders(int targetRi,
                              OfPacketReader pkt,
                              ProtocolVersion pv)
                                       throws MessageParseException

Parses a list of action header structures from the supplied buffer. This method is provided to support the parsing of an "action" table feature property. The list returned contains either ActHeader instances or ActExperimenter instances.

Parameters:

targetRi - the target reader index

pkt - the data buffer

pv - the protocol version

Returns:

a list of parsed actions (header info only)

Throws:

MessageParseException - if there is an issue parsing the structure

TableFeatureFactory, TableFeaturePropAction

createAction

public static Action createAction(ProtocolVersion pv,
                  ActionType type)

Creates an action (header only, no payload), using the specified protocol version.

Parameters:

pv - the protocol version

type - the type of action

Returns:

the action

Throws:

VersionNotSupportedException - if the version is not supported

NullPointerException - if any required parameter is null

IllegalArgumentException - if type is inappropriate

createAction

public static Action createAction(ProtocolVersion pv,
                  ActionType type,
                  MFieldBasic mf)

Creates a SET_FIELD action.

The supplied match field should be a basic match field with its type identifying the field to set, and its value denoting the value to set. There must be no mask included.

Additional note: The match of the flow entry must contain the OXM prerequisite corresponding to the field to be set, otherwise an error will be generated.

The type of the set-field action can be any valid OXM header type. Set-field actions for types IN_PORT, IN_PHY_PORT, and METADATA are not supported, because those are not header fields.

The set-field actions overwrite the header field specified by the OXM type, and perform the necessary CRC recalculation based on the header field. The OXM fields refer to the outermost-possible occurrence in the header, unless the field type explicitly specifies otherwise, and therefore in general the set-field actions apply to the outermost-possible header (e.g. a "Set VLAN ID" set-field action always sets the ID of the outermost VLAN tag).

Parameters:

pv - the protocol version

type - the action type (SET_FIELD)

mf - the match field

Returns:

the action

Throws:

VersionNotSupportedException - if the version is not supported

NullPointerException - if any required parameter is null

IllegalArgumentException - if type is not SET_FIELD, or if mf is inappropriate

createAction

public static Action createAction(ProtocolVersion pv,
                  ActionType type,
                  BigPortNumber port,
                  int maxLen)

Creates an OUTPUT action.

When port is Port.CONTROLLER (i.e. the action is to output the packet to the controller), maxLen indicates the maximum number of bytes of the frame (from 0 to CONTROLLER_MAX) to send to the controller:

• 0 : no bytes should be sent
• 1 .. ActOutput.CONTROLLER_MAX : at most, send this number of bytes
• ActOutput.CONTROLLER_NO_BUFFER : the complete packet is to be sent

When port is not Port.CONTROLLER, the maxLen value should be ignored (since the only reasonable action is to send all the bytes of the packet), but this method will allow a value of either 0 or ActOutput.CONTROLLER_NO_BUFFER to be set.

The degenerate form of this method invokes this method with maxLen equal to 0.

Note that in 1.0, port numbers are u16.

Parameters:

pv - the protocol version

type - the action type (OUTPUT)

port - output port

maxLen - max length to send to the controller

Returns:

the action

Throws:

VersionNotSupportedException - if the version is not supported

NullPointerException - if any required parameter is null

IllegalArgumentException - if type is not OUTPUT, or if maxLen is out of bounds, or if the port number is invalid

If the required output port is Port.CONTROLLER, use createAction(ProtocolVersion, ActionType, BigPortNumber, int) instead.

Parameters:

Returns:

the action

Throws:

VersionNotSupportedException - if the version is not supported

Creates a SET_QUEUE action (used to be named ENQUEUE) for version 1.0.

The specified port is the port to which the queue belongs. It should refer to a valid physical port; that is less than MAX (defined as 0xff00 in 1.0) or equal to Port.IN_PORT.

Note that in 1.0, port numbers are u16.

Parameters:

pv - the protocol version
