Hello,
I am trying to connect a virtual machine with a openvswitch using DPDK
for performance, as you can see in the next figure.

+-------------+ +---------------+
I do not have any problem connecting with 10G NICs, but I do have when
it comes to QEMU. I am nor pretty sure how to connect qemu with ovs.
As far as I know, I think that I have to use MEMNIC or Ivshmem, but I
cannot find much information about how to do it.
Could someone explain to me how can it be done?
Thank you in advanced.
