Comment (by anonymous):
Thanks. I cleaned my build directory, update to trunk and rebuild. Now the
module is now loading correctly.
However, it seems that the kernel module does not provide good performance
throughput. I connect to machine to the switch and setup vlans so that
traffic among them should be passed via openvswitch running on the
openwrt. I used both simple hub and l2 learning switch implementation of
PoX, and the throughput (tested using scp a file from one machine to other
one) was not good. It was around 330 KB/s, which is close to the number
for the case that module was not loading and the userspace module was
handling the traffic (although a bit higher).
Does anyone know how I can measure to see whether module actually perform
well (similar to how it could handle even gigabit speeds on PC kernels)?
