I.e the function that you specified requires minimum 2012/8:<br class="">
<a href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/sysinfoapi/nf-sysinfoapi-getsystemtimepreciseasfiletime" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank" class="">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/api/sysinfoapi/nf-sysinfoapi-getsystemtimepreciseasfiletime</a><br class="">
<br class="">
The main reason why we chose 2012/8 and above is that the forwarding<br class="">
extension requires 2012/8.<br class="">
<br class="">
One could use different API to compile the userspace on 7/2008 but<br class="">
for the kernel module it would be a long way to get there.<br class="">
<br class="">
Also for your other curiosity regarding unix/punix, the manual<br class="">
explains it:<br class="">

I do not find the specific information sheet, but from different resources<br class="">
I can understand that open vswitch is supported on windows version higher<br class="">
than 8 e.g 8.1 and 10.<br class="">
<br class="">
Is there anyway to build it for windows 7?<br class="">
<br class="">
Currently it compiles. However when run, it fails with the<br class="">
GetSystemTimePreciseAsFileTime routine not found in KERNEL32.DLL the<br class="">
routine itrself is documented to exist in 8.1+ windows versions only.</blockquote></div>
