The symbols that we define shouldn't go in compatibility code. We've had problems in the past where systems that integrated OVS need our symbols so they integrate those too but then we can't compile newer versions of OVS there due to duplicate symbols. That's why we have the checksum and vlan files directly in the main source directory even though they are strictly compatibility code. So we should only have things that are upstream or we plan to propose upstream here. In retrospect, we should do this for the genl_exec() stuff as well. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
