Hello!
> This patchset is to provide high performance networking interface (virtio) > for container-based DPDK applications. The way of starting DPDK apps in > containers with ownership of NIC devices exclusively is beyond the scope. > The basic idea here is to present a new virtual device (named eth_cvio), > which can be discovered and initialized in container-based DPDK apps using > rte_eal_init(). To minimize the change, we reuse already-existing virtio > frontend driver code (driver/net/virtio/). With the aforementioned fixes i tried to run it inside libvirt-lxc. I got the following: a) With hugepages - "abort with 256 hugepage files exceed the maximum of 8 for vhost-user" - i set -m 512 b) With --single-file - ovs runs, but doesn't get any packets at all. When i try to ping the container from within host side, it counts drops on vhost-user port. Kind regards, Pavel Fedin Expert Engineer Samsung Electronics Research center Russia
