Hi Anita,

There is another bug fix which should be included in FD-Beta and FD-Prod.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1378501

If you agree, we would need to roll back this bz to include that new fix.

Changing to OVS-only, DPDK is in bug 1383195

Hi Flavio

Yes we need to include support for vanilla OVS on older hardware/chipsets (non SSE3 instruction set). There are RHV and RHOSP enterprise customers running older hardware. Need to update FD beta and production with fix for BZ1378501

 One option is to not hold up FD beta (mostly DPDK partners and customers) for this but to get this into FD production for OVS 2.5 unified package release by Oct 18 2016

Let's complete this bz since it's in flight already and we will push the other two fixes in the next batch possible.
