Hi Ethan, I am all for updating the documentation but I haven't looked at IVSHMEM for quite some time. I've been testing vhost-cuse/user, so I am clueless regarding to the needs of dpdk-2.0 or newer qemu. I hope that you don't need a patched qemu these days, for example, not sure. Therefore, I would need that doc too if I had to get IVSHMEM working. fbl > Ethan > > On Wed, Sep 3, 2014 at 3:00 PM, Pravin Shelar <pshe...@nicira.com> wrote: > > On Wed, Sep 3, 2014 at 10:14 AM, Flavio Leitner <f...@redhat.com> wrote: > >> On Fri, Aug 29, 2014 at 03:54:08PM -0700, Pravin Shelar wrote: > >>> On Fri, Aug 15, 2014 at 7:07 AM, Polehn, Mike A <mike.a.pol...@intel.com> > >>> wrote: > >>> > Adds documentation on how to run IVSHMEM communication through VM. > >>> > > >>> I think INSTALL.DPDK is getting rather large and hard to understand > >>> with all details. > >>> so I dropped "Alternative method to get QEMU, download and build from > >>> OVDK" section. > >>> We can add this documentation to separate file once vhost support is > >>> added. > >> > >> It's better to have extra info than no info at all. > >> > > I agree, I just wanted to organize it better. > > > >> Since all these features are recent, it's hard to find any info out > >> there, so please keep it. > >> > >> fbl > > _______________________________________________ > > dev mailing list > > dev@openvswitch.org > > http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev > _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
