 openstack-dev,

 A question about the fix from https://review.openstack.org/#/c/82931

 After this fix, the neutron code now explicitly checks for kernel
 version 3.13- was this deliberate? (I was using an older 3.11 version
 before, and did not seem to have any issues before this change).

 Is there a specific kernel patch that ovs-vxlan is dependant on?

This patch checks for = 3.13.0 if you're using VXLAN with OVS. It will also
check the OVS module info if you're using an out-of-tree module to get
VXLAN support. But the converged OVS+Linux VXLAN support for the in-tree
Linux OVS module was completed in 3.13.

Thanks,
Kyle

The change as I coded it won't work for this case. I wasn't aware of
the changes being made
by the Red Hat folks to backport VXLAN support. I'd be curious to here
from them on-list if
they backported the upstream Linux kernel VXLAN support or the OVS
VXLAN support. My
guess would be the former.

Yes, that does seem odd.
