This RFC patch makes use of the vhost-user implementation that is available in DPDK 2.0. Submitting as RFC as this implementation depends on OVS support for DPDK 2.0. As such, this patch can be considered experimental.
Since DPDK 2.0 support is necessary for vhost-user, please use this patch to enable compilation with 2.0: http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2015-April/054302.html v3: - Changed default socket location from '/tmp' to the return value of ovs_rundir() , usually '/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch'. - Added ovs-vswitchd cmd line argument for specifying an alternate location for the sockets to be created (--vhost_sock_dir).
