Hi Ian,

Thanks for getting back . I agree that the patch Tiago has posted in the latest 
needs more testing but this is more sort of an improvement. Can we merge the 
first part of the problem as addressed in 

https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2018-May/346649.html


This will atleast prevent silent memory leaks and irrelevant tunnel header 
pushes .


Regards 
Anju

I wasn't aware of this tbh. It seems like a bug fix so I believe it would be 
eligible to be merged for the 2.11 release a(and possibly backported also).

As it manipulates the dp packets functionality it would need wider testing and 
discussion among the community.

It won't make it upstream this week before we cut for 2.11 I would think but 
there is 4 weeks allowed until release where bug fixes are allowed. If further 
work continues it could be merged within that window or afterwards and 
backported?

Ian
