OVS userspace can work with the OVS kernel module distributed with the kernel. This provides a straightforward workaround. I don't understand the comment about updating the FAQ/NEWS version matrix. It already states that 2.3 supports Linux 2.6.32 to 3.14, and explicitly mentions that modified

Well, the last released version of ovs-2.3.1 was in Dec/03/2014 (per NEWS) and there is no formal plan discussed about ovs-2.4 in any of the mailing lists. I see there is ovs-2.3.2 documented in NEWS with xxx suggesting there will be a release sometime in future. Unless there is a certified

I recommend building a kernel module from master. New features, such as support for new kernels, are always added on master first. Periodically we branch to a release branch, and then release that branch after allowing some time to report and fix bugs. We do not certify any version of OVS for

Thanks. A patch off branch-2.3 will certainly help as 2.3.1 the latest released OVS version and it would be nice to see it compatible with latest Centos official distro. Can you also update the FAQ/NEWs version matrix? On Thu, 2 Apr 2015, Joe Stringer wrote: I pushed a fix to master for

Seems likely. For new kernels, make sure you're building master. On Wed, Apr 01, 2015 at 04:46:54PM -0700, Sabyasachi Sengupta wrote: ovs from master branch off github does not build in C7.1. There are quite a few errors in datapath directory, was hoping if a patch was already available.
