Thank you so much. I was able to add meter now following this link <https://github.com/ebiken/doc-network/wiki/How-To:-Install-OVS-(Kernel-Module)-from-Source-Code>. To build the Linux kernel module, I had to configure with --with-linux argument. Also, I had to delete the kernel's build-in openvswitch.ko module present in: /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/net/openvswitch before loading the one from OVS source.
