[Bug 2066906] Re: [noble] Missing fix for continuations with associated metering.

[Mauricio Faria de Oliveira]

Review feedback:

- Versioning:

It's standard practice that version string for stable releases are
incremented by `ubuntu0.1`, and development release, by `ubuntu1`
(please see [1]).

This SRU/upload incremented by `ubuntu1`, but this was accepted
previously (noble: ubuntu1, noble-proposed: ubuntu2), and isn't
used in the publishing history [2].

So, this isn't an issue this time (but it could, were the version
used in a newer release), so just please note it in future uploads. :)

 openvswitch | 3.3.0-1ubuntu1             | noble           | source
 openvswitch | 3.3.0-1ubuntu2             | noble-proposed  | source
 openvswitch | 3.3.0-5                    | oracular        | source

- Patch file

DEP-3 headers [3] Bug-Ubuntu: and Origin: would be nice in the future
(not strictly required, but if you start with git patch(es), like this,
it's the only 2 lines to add, and it may help with future maintenance.)

Thanks for the work, bug report, and upload.
Hope this helps!
Mauricio

Title:
  [noble] Missing fix for continuations with associated metering.

Status in openvswitch package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in openvswitch source package in Noble:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]
  There is a bug in Open vSwitch which is required for successful build and test run for OVN 24.03.2.
  (Bug 2066908: [SRU] ovn 24.03.2 point release)

  [ Test plan ]
  - Build and test the OVN 24.03.2 package.
  - Check openvswitch build log for new test (must pass/'ok')
    `ofproto-dpif - continuation with meters`

  [ Regression Potential ]
  Minimal, the fix has been available for some time upstream already and has been deemed safe to backport all the way to Open vSwitch 2.17 by the upstream maintainers.

  Regressions would likely manifest in the areas modified by the patch:
  - invoking a controller action by way of a sample action with a specified meter;
  sample action is generated during xlate processing and/or (now) continuation.

  [ Other Info ]
  The bug has been fixed upstream, and there is a patch available for branch-3.3 [0].
