Abstract
A packet processor or packet processing pipeline may implement forwarding table updates during live packet stream processing. Updates may be updates to add or remove entries from group of entries in a forwarding table or may be updates to defragment the available entries in a chain of entries maintained in a forwarding table. Reserved entries may be allocated for moving entries as part of updates so that migrations of the entries from one location to another may be performed atomically.
