Yes, the only problem was that due to acinclude.m4 between the modified files. So I also needed to run autoreconf -f -i but it fails on CentOS 6.3 configure.ac:15: error: Autoconf version 2.64 or higher is required configure.ac:15: the top level autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 63 aclocal: autom4te failed with exit status: 63 autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 63 release packages are autoconf-2.63-5.1.el6.noarch automake-1.11.1-1.2.el6.noarch I solved running the autoreconf command on a Fedora 17 system against the patched tree and then recomposing the tar.gz and then build successfully on CentOS 6.3 via the provided spec file. Also, during build I got Processing files: kmod-openvswitch-1.6.1-1.el6.x86_64 Finding Provides: /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/find-provides ******************************************************************************** *********************** KERNEL ABI COMPATIBILITY WARNING *********************** ******************************************************************************** The kernel ABI reference files (provided by kabi-whitelists) were not found. No compatibility check was performed. Please install the kABI reference files and rebuild if you would like to verify compatibility with kernel ABI. It could be useful to include kabi-whitelists between the BuildRequires directives for openswitch-kmod btw: I also had to apply for 6.3 a workaround as in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=842038 to get at the end: Processing files: kmod-openvswitch-1.6.1-1.el6.x86_64 Finding Provides: /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/find-provides ******************************************************************************** *********************** KERNEL ABI COMPATIBILITY WARNING *********************** ******************************************************************************** The following kernel symbols are not guaranteed to remain compatible with future kernel updates to this RHEL release: brioctl_set genl_register_family_with_ops genl_register_mc_group nlmsg_notify Red Hat recommends that you consider using only official kernel ABI symbols where possible.
