1633387 – W.r.t. Ubuntu, we need to make sure vrouter.ko is DKMS compatible against any kernel. When 4.x kernel came to market long back, we observed that vrouter does not DKMS compile against that kernel and the bug was filed. However at that time our customers were in 3.x kernels. Recently there are use-cases forced us to fix this and as per my understanding, this is fixed by the commits made already. We will keep it in 5.0.2 scope and close it after assessing all use-case. Mainly AWS, Azure, GCP, vR-vR encryption needs latest kernels.

1769542 – We can move to 5.0.2. However, this need to be worked on for 3.2.12.0 release targeted for Sep end. If possible code complete by End of Aug. Based on the root cause and fix, we need to post the changes to higher branches.

Thanks,
Jeba

Vineet,
I see the following in the 5.0.1 list and not sure why it is critical for 5.0.1. Can you clarify?

1. 1633387 ---- This bug is a compilation issue and almost 2 years old. Why has this been assigned a 5.0.1 scope recently?

2. 1769542 ---- It is open since 3.2. I do realize that this is a customer issue but given the short runway for 5.0.1 and low impact I want to move it to 5.1.0. Ok with you?
