Subject: ovs-ctl: Start the rest of Open vSwitch if loading brcompat module fails.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=024c78b852ace6319dfd4b46cafc1b9fe4180d77;p=openvswitch

ovs-ctl: Start the rest of Open vSwitch if loading brcompat module fails.

This may be more useful in practice than failing the entire OVS startup
sequence.

Debian bug #681955.
