Today i played with openvswitch on my workstation with kernel 2.6.40 and found that it break when i built. The
+issue is introduced by commit ceb176fdb72bb7ce90debc66e1eeb1d25823d30a

Below is the error log:

Usually we just do these types of checks as we see examples of actual
backporting to avoid having hundreds of tests at configure time.  In
this case, I think the issue is just a difference in how the same
kernel is numbered not backporting, so there isn't really a reason to
believe that this is a bigger problem.

That would be great, thanks.

Yeah, it can work now, but i don't know if this issue exist on other
old kernel version < 2.6.40.

Should we send one updated patch for this based on your suggestion?

2.6.40 is the early name for 3.0.  Does it work if you just replace
the check with KERNEL_VERSION(2,6,40)?

Today i played with openvswitch on my workstation with kernel 2.6.40 and found that it break when i built. The issue is introduced by commit ceb176fdb72bb7ce90debc66e1eeb1d25823d30a

After this patch is applied, i can successfully do one build and be happy to see that multiple VMs can communicate with each other.
