Hey Ian,

I built OvS versions 2.7.1-.3 against DPDK v16.11.4 without issue.

However, with OvS v2.7.0, I see the following:

	Warning, treated as error:
	<redacted>/ovs/Documentation/topics/windows.rst:506:Footnote [5] is not referenced.
	make[2]: *** [htmldocs] Error 1
	make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
	make[2]: Leaving directory `/<redacted>/dev/ovs'
	make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
	make[1]: Leaving directory `/<redacted>/dev/ovs'
	make: *** [all] Error 2

It's worth noting though, that this issue is also present when building OvS v2.7.0 with DPDK v16.11.3. As such, I don't see this as an issues specific to this patch, but which should be resolved separately.

Cheers,
Mark

Thanks Mark,

I would guess this is an issue in the Windows documentation that was subsequently fixed for the 2.7.1 release. I guess users should be pushed to the latest release here.

Thanks
Ian
