I think that this patch fixes that problem: diff --git a/lib/netdev-dpdk.c b/lib/netdev-dpdk.c index 09ccc2c..e7e46eb 100644 --- a/lib/netdev-dpdk.c +++ b/lib/netdev-dpdk.c @@ -683,6 +683,10 @@ netdev_dpdk_vhost_user_construct(struct netdev *netdev_) */ snprintf(netdev->vhost_id, sizeof(netdev->vhost_id), "%s/%s", vhost_sock_dir, netdev_->name); + if (unlink(netdev->vhost_id) && errno != ENOENT) { + VLOG_WARN("unlinking \"%s\": %s", + netdev->vhost_id, ovs_strerror(errno)); + } err = rte_vhost_driver_register(netdev->vhost_id); if (err) { VLOG_ERR("vhost-user socket device setup failure for socket %s\n", It's pretty much necessary anyway.
