Datapath port # supported for compatibility

I am trying to get ryu running, especially topology detection.

I am now running a demo application for this in ryu/topology/dumper.py

, which should reset all topology events. I am in the directory ryu/topology

and run it with ryu-manager dumper.py

. The ryu-manager version is 2.23.2.

Shortly after starting it gives me this error:

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ryu/topology/switches.py:478: UserWarning:
 Datapath#ports is kept for compatibility with the previous openflow versions (< 1.3).
 This not be updated by EventOFPPortStatus message. If you want to be updated,
 you can use 'ryu.controller.dpset' or 'ryu.topology.switches'.
  for port in dp.ports.values():

      

What's really strange to me is what he recommends to use ryu.topology.switches

, but this error is triggered on line 478 of this very file!

The corresponding function is this:

class Switches(app_manager.RyuApp):
    OFP_VERSIONS = [ofproto_v1_0.OFP_VERSION, ofproto_v1_2.OFP_VERSION,
                    ofproto_v1_3.OFP_VERSION, ofproto_v1_4.OFP_VERSION]
    _EVENTS = [event.EventSwitchEnter, event.EventSwitchLeave,
               event.EventPortAdd, event.EventPortDelete,
               event.EventPortModify,
               event.EventLinkAdd, event.EventLinkDelete]

    DEFAULT_TTL = 120  # unused. ignored.
    LLDP_PACKET_LEN = len(LLDPPacket.lldp_packet(0, 0, DONTCARE_STR, 0))

    LLDP_SEND_GUARD = .05
    LLDP_SEND_PERIOD_PER_PORT = .9
    TIMEOUT_CHECK_PERIOD = 5.
    LINK_TIMEOUT = TIMEOUT_CHECK_PERIOD * 2
    LINK_LLDP_DROP = 5
#...
    def _register(self, dp):
        assert dp.id is not None

        self.dps[dp.id] = dp
        if dp.id not in self.port_state:
            self.port_state[dp.id] = PortState()
            for port in dp.ports.values():    # THIS LINE
                self.port_state[dp.id].add(port.port_no, port)

      

Has anyone else encountered this problem before? How can I fix this?

I ran into the same problem (depending on your application, maybe this is not a problem, just a warning that can be ignored). Here's what I realized afterfind . -type f | xargs grep "ports is kept"

This warning is triggered ryu.topology.switches

by a call _get_ports()

to a class Datapath

file ryu/controller/controller.py

.

class Datapath(ofproto_protocol.ProtocolDesc):
    #......
    def _get_ports(self):
        if (self.ofproto_parser is not None and
                self.ofproto_parser.ofproto.OFP_VERSION >= 0x04):
            message = (
                'Datapath#ports is kept for compatibility with the previous '
                'openflow versions (< 1.3). '
                'This not be updated by EventOFPPortStatus message. '
                'If you want to be updated, you can use '
                '\'ryu.controller.dpset\' or \'ryu.topology.switches\'.'
            )
            warnings.warn(message, stacklevel=2)
        return self._ports

    def _set_ports(self, ports):
        self._ports = ports

    # To show warning when Datapath#ports is read
    ports = property(_get_ports, _set_ports)

      



I understand that if the warning is from ryu.topology.switches

or ryu.controller.dpset

, you can ignore it; because these two classes handle the event for you. But if you use Datapath

directly, the port status is not automatically updated. Someone will correct me if I am wrong.

class Switches(app_manager.RyuApp):
    #......
    @set_ev_cls(ofp_event.EventOFPPortStatus, MAIN_DISPATCHER)
    def port_status_handler(self, ev):

I ran into this problem before, but I just ignored it and it still works as expected.

If you are trying to learn topology, I would recommend using ryu.topology.api

. those.

from ryu.topology.api import get_switch, get_link

      



There is a tutorial . However, there are some missing things.

Here's what I have so far: Controller.py

There are two functions in Controller.pyget_switch(self, None)

and get_link(self, None)

will give you a list of links and radio buttons.
