The definition of __ip_select_ident() has changed in newer kernels and this new definition has just been backported into stable kernels.
There is a patch in openvswitch that fixes this issue (http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2014-September/045479.html), unfortunately the patch hasn't made it into a stable release yet. Someone might want to pull that patch into the ubuntu package so that it builds properly, you could always apply it manually or run the latest git version of openvswitch if you want to just get openvswitch working on your local machine. I can confirm rolling your kernel back to 3.2.0-69-generic is a workaround for now and openvswitch will successfully build against this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to openvswitch in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1381258 Title: openvswitch-datapath-dkms 1.4.6-0ubuntu1.12.04.3: openvswitch kernel module failed to build [error: too many arguments to function ‘ip_select_ident’] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openvswitch/+bug/1381258/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
