the right compiler, linker, libraries, Open vSwitch component installation
directories, etc. For example,
- % ./configure CC=./build-aux/cccl LD="`which link`" LIBS="-lws2_32 ..." \
+ % ./configure CC=./build-aux/cccl LD="`which link`" LIBS="-lws2_32" \
--prefix="C:/openvswitch/usr" --localstatedir="C:/openvswitch/var" \
--sysconfdir="C:/openvswitch/etc" --with-pthread="C:/pthread"
* Run make for the ported executables in the top source directory, e.g.:
- % make utilities/ovs-vsctl.exe ovsdb/ovsdb-server.exe
+ % make
+
+* To run all the unit tests:
+
+ % make check
OpenSSL, Open vSwitch and Visual C++
------------------------------------
--with-openssl="C:/OpenSSL-Win32"
* Run make for the ported executables.

+TODO:
+----
+
+* OVS currently has no native support for atomics on Windows. Pthreads
+are used as a fallback, but some features, such as OVS-RCU are really
+slow without native atomics support. Atomics support for Windows has to
+be brought in.
+* Investigate the working of sFlow on Windows and re-enable the unit tests.
