Hi Kevin,

Tested with OVS 2.11 and 2.12 with the following. No issues found.

RFC2544 throughput for i40e and ixgbe devices.
RXQ and RSS validation for i40e & ixgbe devices.
Dynamic/Static Flow control for ixgbe devices.
RFC2544 for vhost interfaces.
Vhost re-connect.
Vhost numa.
Vhost Multi queue (testpmd and Linux network stack tested within VM).

Regards
Ian
