Hi Eric,
2017-07-11, Eric Garver:
Inserting an important note for reviewers/testers.
[...]
Note: This depends on vport-netdev changes to allow L3 netdev ports,
kernel commit 217ac77a3c25 ("openvswitch: allow L3 netdev ports"). So
you either need a 4.10+ kernel or use the modules provided with OVS.
I was able to successfully do MPLS/GRE (without TEB, ie.
options:packet_type=legacy_l3) with this patch series, on a 4.11 kernel
with the openvswitch kernel module provided with OVS (DKMS compiled),
and with the kernel openvswitch module as well.
It is really great to this this work today!
However, as per our discussion on irc yesterday [1], I wasn't able to
have this working (issue on reception) on an 4.8.x kernel, even with the
openvswitch kernel module provided with OVS. Is it possible that another
kernel fix/modification is needed that is not in 4.8.x ?
