It's been tested with 2.1.0 and 2.2.0. It has also previously been tested with 1.6.2 but only the '-mem-path /dev/hugepages -mem-prealloc' flags are needed to share the hugepage for that version. It won't work with 2.0.0 as there isn't a way to share the hugepage. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
