Just so that we're clear, this patch is an intermediate step so that it's easier to do incremental development of the rest of the backports, right? In particular, I assume that we'd want to stop using the compat code for tunnels on 4.3 and use net devices? And of course there are plenty of things that were added to OVS in 4.3 upstream in addition to this. I understand that why we need to re-enable the various protocol modules now but is it possible to avoid all of the supporting code? It seems like we should be able to continue using the upstream implementations of GSO, socket registration, etc. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
