PAGE_SIZE can vary by a factor of 16, depending on config. Everyone thinks 4k, and tests only for that. There's potential for very large performance and behavior changes when their code gets run on a 64k PAGE_SIZE machine. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
