These patches don't have kernel dependency, they also don't depend on DPDK, you can use it in the same way as you used the version from CISCO (Pritesh), two test flow files have detailed openflow changes. For ovsdb and sfc and gbp, we need to change openflowplugin to support these new match fields and actions, ovsdb and sfc and gbp need to do some changes to adapt to these changes, but to-be-done changes will be very little, I'll work on this and make sure they can transit smoothly.
We're still working on official ovs patches, that will include kernel changes (ovs community asks us to merge kernel patches in Linux kernel firstly, then ovs can merge the rest part), but this work is very slow, merge will be much slower. >From openflow interface, they are almost the same, once ODL is changed to >support the version I published, ODL can still adapt to the later official >release, change will be very very little.

We'll start looking into using this now. Do you know what's the latest status of getting NSH into OVS officially? What's the difference between this patch in your github and what will be available officially? What are the system requirements for using your patch, like Linux kernel, OVS, etc. It doesnt look like it, but is DPDK needed with this patch?
