Re: [ovs-dev] [PATCH 2/5] ofproto: Allow the use of the OpenFlow 1.4 protocol

The one bit that I'm concerned about is that it allows OpenFlow 1.4 to be enabled even though there are unimplemented messages that will cause Open vSwitch to abort if ovs-vswitchd receives one (or tries to send one). We need to avoid that somehow; one way would be to not allow OpenFlow 1.4 to be enabled as long as any of those messages exist. ___ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
