The openvswitch.ko is included in the Linux kernel. But it does not say which ovs version it is. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $ modinfo openvswitch filename: /lib/modules/3.11.0-13-generic/kernel/net/openvswitch/openvswitch.ko license: GPL description: Open vSwitch switching datapath srcversion: 5F14AE1F66565BFF4709941 depends: gre intree: Y vermagic: 3.11.0-13-generic SMP mod_unload modversions --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ovs 2.0.0 userspace builds and works fine in Linux kernel 3.11. ---------------------------------------------- $ ovs-vsctl -V ovs-vsctl (Open vSwitch) 2.0.0 Compiled Apr 9 2014 11:18:27 ---------------------------------------------- So the ovs kernel module and ovs usespace functions do not match with each other. Does anybody know why is this? Would there be any problems?

Has anybody else seen this before? Thanks, Best regards, Huimin
