I assumed you were using ODL since you wrote to the ODL mailing list ;)

Unless you have to, don't use OVS with NSH patches. Use official OVS
2.9 or later that already has NSH support built in, no patches needed.
You mentioned that the latest OVS release already works for you so why
use any other release?

For clarification, the nsh flows would be different for OVS 2.5/2.6 +
nsh patches than for OVS>=2.9. The same flows will not work on both
versions as the nsh pathes don't implement the same set of
actions/fields as the official NSH support.

It should work if the OVS version used is supported by the
corresponding release of ODL SFC, as detailed on the release notes.

Hello Jaime,

Must I use ODL to make OVS(nsh) work?
Cause I'm currently at a very beginning stage, and just manually
construct the flow entries for testing.
And found that OVS with nsh patches doesn't match any data packet to
flow entries.
Theoretically, even if deploying ODL, the flow entries which are issued
by ODL won’t work too. Is that correct?

Thanks in advance.

Best wishes,
Ziyu

    Hello Ziyu
    
    It depends on the version of ODL you want to use. For fluorine and
    later ODL release, you need to use OVS 2.9 or later. For earlier
    versions of ODL, the release notes provide instructions on how to
build
    OVS with NSH support. 
    
    For example, on Oxygen:

    Hi all,
     
    Good days.
     
    I’m testing the SFC-NSH features and encountered a problem that the
OVS
    cannot match the flow entry after applied ovs_nsh_patches <https://
gith
    ub.com/yyang13/ovs_nsh_patches>
    Kernel: 4.2.0-27-generic

    Is there any possible to share me the newer patches or
instructions?
     
    Appreciate your reply.
