Fixed In Version: openvswitch-2.9.0-97.el7fdp
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, the python-openvswitch library did not de-allocate objects used when communicating with the openvswitch process, causing a memory leak in neutron agents. As a result, Neutron agent memory size increased continuously until reaching a state of memory starvation and the kernel out-of-memory-killer started terminating processes. With this update, the python-openvswitch library correctly de-allocates objects and the memory leak in neutron no longer occurs.

@elewis: It may seem confusing because openvswitch-2.9.0-97.el7fdp is the hotfix version for both OSP 10 and OSP 13, but it is valid for both.
