Re: What is the OVS version and Kernel version planned for 5.1

 

2.1 has a lot of enhancements primarily for increasing multicore vswitchd
performance. Kernel module had improved megaflow heuristic (and nice ip4
tuples which helps to create wildcard flows based on endpoint ip4 header
analysis), though it will be even better in upcoming 2.3.0. If you are not
dealing with hundreds of thousands of unique flows per second, 2.0 vs 2.1
vs master makes no difference.
