hi:
I have met a strange phenomenon.
openvswitch FAQ says that ovs version 2.1.x only compatible with linux kernel
version 2.6.32 to 3.11,
and ovs version 1.11.x only compatible with linux kernel version 2.6.32 to 3.8
Here is my enviroment:
[root@l3vpn2 linux-3.14.19]# cat /etc/issue
CentOS release 6.5 (Final)
Kernel \r on an \m
[root@l3vpn2 linux-3.14.19]# uname -r
3.16.0-rc1
When I use command "yum -y install openvswitch", then ovs version 1.11.0 is
installed, and it seems every thing works OK
but you know, 1.11.0 is not compatible with kernel version 3.16.
When I use ovs source code(version 2.1.2) to build with kernel module, system
reports error:
configure: error: Linux kernel in /home/ychen/linux-3.16-rc1 is version 3.16.0,
but version newer than 3.11.x is not supported
and if I use ovs version 2.1.2 but with openvswitch.ko as version 1.11.0,
several functions can not work well.
So my question is: why command "yum install openvswitch" withe ovs version
1.11.0 can work well with linux kernel version 3.16?
