Hi Alin.  Thanks for working on this!

This patch set breaks the linux build, at least on patch #2.
You might noticed the reply from 0-day robot.  Also, all our
CI systems failed:
  https://travis-ci.org/github/ovsrobot/ovs/jobs/725379551#L3191

Please, take a look.

And in case you missed my reply for the previous version of patch #8,
I had a question if we could use openssl 1.1.1 instead of 1.0.2 since
1.0.2 is not recommended to use.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
