Hi,

     In our experiment we are using OVS 2.4 with DPDK 2.0 with Centos 7.0 + 
kernel 3.18.22.

     We added few physical ports to the PMD thread and added to the bridge.  
Also created KNI interface between vEth and the physical port part of the 
bridge. We could send and receive the traffic via KNI.
     When we attach a controller i.e. ovs-vsctl --no-wait set-controller br0 
tcp:127.0.0.1:6653   we are seeing that kni_thread is crashed.

      Crash is not seen when we don't have KNI interface present. Also, without 
having controller added we are able to work with multiple pairs of vEth - PHY 
via KNI.

     Appreciating any hints on this topic!

Thanks
Samy
