An exact-match cache (microflow cache) is an implementation of the datapath.  
The userspace and out-of-tree OVS Linux kernel module that ships as part of OVS 
contain an exact-match cache that's managed by the datapath.  The upstream OVS 
kernel module that ships with the Linux kernel was rejected by the Linux 
upstream community, so it does not contain one.
