Hi,

I am using latest code checked out from git (after patching it with
the 2/2 patches by Ravi K ) When running this command:

ovs-openflowd dp0 tcp:127.0.0.1:6633 --fail=secure  --listen=ptcp:6634
 --datapath-id=0000000000000001

It is not working and failing with the following message:

May 28 05:12:12|00001|openflowd|INFO|Open vSwitch version 1.1.1
May 28 05:12:12|00002|openflowd|INFO|OpenFlow protocol version 0x01
May 28 05:12:12|00003|dpif_linux|ERR|Generic Netlink family
'odp_datapath' does not exist. The Open vSwitch kernel module is
probably not loaded.
May 28 05:12:12|00004|dpif|WARN|failed to create datapath dp0: No such
file or directory
ovs-openflowd: could not create datapath (No such file or directory)


Where is the problem ?

Thanks,
N Rohit.
