As an alternative you could use the HWE kernels provided for Ubuntu 18.04
LTS:
linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04-edge (5.4)
linux-image-generic-hwe-18.04 (5.3)
however that may mean that the default images used for testing in openinfra
might need to be updated to use the latest kernel versions

Re: [ovs-discuss] [ovs-dev] OVS 2.12/2.13 compilation on Ubuntu Bionic
Hello,
Thank you for your responses!

Yes. QoS for OVN wasn't really working before until the OVN team started
using OVS meter actions. Those type of actions are not working properly
with OVS kernel module shipped by Ubuntu Bionic (up to kernel 4.18.0 [1]),
so to test this functionality in Neutron upstream gates we compile the
module from OVS source.
This patch is actually on branch-2.12 and branch-2.13.

This patch is actually on branch-2.12 and branch-2.13.
The only thing that is missing is a new stable release (tags).
We're going to release new stable versions on all previous branches soon.
