Hi Yi:

    Thanks for your reply. 
    Another question: I have found for OVS master version there are many modifications for compatible with DPDK-19.11, so if I want ovs master version works with DPDK-18.11-6,I have to collect all the related patches and try to revert them. Is there an easy approch to count out all the related patches?

Thanks
Timo

 [ovs-discuss] Question about DPDK version which OVS works with


In general, you need to change ovs to compatible with old DPDK, this isn't
too big effort, if you just use previous one of current version, this will
be easier, just revert DPDK upgrade patch.

But there are some special cases, for example, current TSO feature depends
on DPDK 19.11, it can't pass build if you use old DPDK versions, it also
can't work, so this depends on specific versions.



 [ovs-discuss] Question about DPDK version which OVS works with

Hi all:


   I have a question about DPDK version. From release.rst I have found every
OVS release version has a corresponding DPDK version. But what if using a
preceding DPDK version ? I mean if I choose OVS-2.13, combined with DPDK-18.
11-6, is that possible or I can just use  DPDK-19.11 ?

Thanks
Timo
