The commit 69c51582ff786 ("dpif-netlink: don't allocate per
thread netlink sockets"), in Open vSwitch ovs-vswitchd, has
changed the number of allocated sockets to just one per port
by moving the socket array from a per handler structure to
a per datapath one. In the kernel datapath, a vport will have
only one socket in most case, if so select it directly in
fast-path.
