Hi, For why I have to build openvswitch-kmod, I think it is from spec under rhel/openvswitch.spec ... Requires: openvswitch-kmod, logrotate, python ... I read spec from Fedora source rpm ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/source/SRPMS/o/openvswitch-2.3.0-2.fc22.src.rpm
... Requires: openssl iproute module-init-tools Requires: kernel >= 3.15.0-0 ... Our product node did not have so high kernel. So we will use openvswitch-kmod intead. Do you think it is reasonable? Any comments? Thanks!

Indeed, that's what I meant by bootstrap the tree again (./boot.sh). The ./configure script creates a cache file so that in the next time you run, it doesn't need to go checking everything on the system again. However, in this case that patch changes the things checked by the script but it doesn't trigger any refresh. So you need to do it by running ./boot.sh script. > I found after run this step, all errors changed to warning so build > passed. Cool.

The kernel module (the one you're building) is part of the standard RHEL kernel. $ rpm -qpl kernel-3.10.0-123.2.1.el7.x86_64.rpm | grep openvswitch /lib/modules/3.10.0-123.2.1.el7.x86_64/kernel/net/openvswitch /lib/modules/3.10.0-123.2.1.el7.x86_64/kernel/net/openvswitch/openvswitch.ko fbl
