Subject: Increase the default priority of vswitchd and brcompatd
X-Git-Tag: v0.90.6~24
X-Git-Url: http://git.onelab.eu/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c2abdb7ec64ddf295bf92b4713e755dda1bf2f31;p=sliver-openvswitch.git

Increase the default priority of vswitchd and brcompatd

Our hope is that this will resolve many of the issues we have seen
where temporary delays in the forwarding of packets have caused issues
of various types.

This is a crossport from master of commit 44cb492 by Ian Campbell.
