Thanks to both you and Thomas for reviewing. I pushed the series to master. I did build tests on a hopefully representative set of both upstream and RHEL kernels as well as functional tests. I didn't test it exhaustively against all possible kernels - do you have a script to do this? If you do, you can run it against master now. The changes from the previous series should be pretty minimal so hopefully I didn't break anything else. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
