I used the wrong config option in above. Let me rephrase it. +1 to removing the -c parameter as it seems to be the same as 'other_config:pmd-cpu-mask + other_config:nonpmd-cpu-mask' and is a little confusing as to how they interact. Maybe 'other_config:pmd-cpu-mask + other_config:nonpmd-cpu-mask' could be a mandatory option? _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
