gNMI Set Semantics when Update and Replace fields intersect #134

Closed wenovus closed 3 years ago

wenovus commented 3 years ago

Hi, 

message SetRequest {
...
  repeated Update replace = 3;    // Updates specifying elements to be replaced.
  repeated Update update = 4;     // Updates specifying elements to updated.
...
}

From the surface of this definition it looks to me that it's possible for the updates to intersect. Is this right? If so, how should this be handled?

Nevermind, this is addressed in the spec here: https://github.com/openconfig/reference/blob/master/rpc/gnmi/gnmi-specification.md#34-modifying-state.
