Thanks for the patch, I realized that this will not be possible with the vhost pmd proposed here: https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2016-October/243394.html I'm afraid we have to stick to full reconfiguration for every mtu change. Even though on current master and branch-2.6 reconfiguration is slow (it brings down all the threads), I think we can make it faster. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
