Hi,

I have taken the code form
https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs

I have added two dpdk devices

ovs-vsctl add-port br0 dpdk0 -- set Interface dpdk0 type=dpdk
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 dpdk1 -- set Interface dpdk1 type=dpdk


https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/blob/master/INSTALL.DPDK


In the above link it is mentioned as " [ Once first DPDK port is added to 
vswitchd, it creates a Polling thread and
polls dpdk device in continuous loop. Therefore CPU utilization
for that thread is always 100%. ] "


As per my understanding  each  dpdk device is polled on different thread .
But in my case vswithcd is running in only single thread [on core 0]  , I 
expected to run on 3 cores ..

One thing I want to clarify   that .. does ovs-vswitchd runs on single core 
only  .. or multiple thereads .. when I added dpdk devices .
If vswitchd runs on multiple threads , when I added dpdk devices .. pls let me 
know how can I run .


Thanks,
Srinivas.
