Some. I was holding back to review this patch:
https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2017-May/333000.html
When I apply it, "make check" fails. I've spent a few minutes trying to see if there's an actual bug there. While running valgrind, I did discover one, for which I sent a patch:
https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2017-June/334688.html
Valgrind didn't report an error on the original issue, though. I'm going to poke around a bit more tonight to see what's going on. If I don't make any progress soon, though, we'll defer it to a future release. I wouldn't mind getting that other patch reviewed, though, since it does affect 2.7 and is pretty trivial.
