Hi, If you could have a look at this <http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39227298/cant-make-install-ovs> problem it would be very helpful.
or here is the detail. I am following this <https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/blob/master/INSTALL.DPDK.md> guide to install OVS with DPDK. I manage till *2.3 Install OVS* > cd $OVS_DIR > ./boot.sh > ./configure --with-dpdk=$DPDK_BUILD all runs fine without any error but when I do > make install It fails. Here's the output root@ubuntu:/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0# make install make install-recursive make[1]: Entering directory '/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0' Making install in datapath make[2]: Entering directory '/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0/datapath' make[3]: Entering directory '/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0/datapath' make[4]: Entering directory '/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0/datapath' make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'install-exec-am'. make[4]: Nothing to be done for 'install-data-am'. make[4]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0/datapath' make[3]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0/datapath' make[2]: Leaving directory '/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0/datapath' make[2]: Entering directory '/usr/src/openvswitch-2.5.0' depbase=`echo lib/netdev-dpdk.lo | sed 's|[^/]*$|.deps/&|;s|\.lo$||'`;\ /bin/bash ./libtool --tag=CC --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I ./include -I ./include -I ./lib -I ./lib -I/usr/include -Wstrict-prototypes -Wall -Wextra -Wno-sign-compare -Wpointer-arith -Wformat-security -Wswitch-enum -Wunused-parameter -Wbad-function-cast -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-field-initializers -fno-strict-aliasing -mssse3 -I/usr/src/dpdk-16.07/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/include -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -g -O2 -MT lib/netdev-dpdk.lo -MD -MP -MF $depbase.Tpo -c -o lib/netdev-dpdk.lo lib/netdev-dpdk.c &&\ mv -f $depbase.Tpo $depbase.Plo libtool: compile: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I ./include -I ./include -I ./lib -I ./lib -I/usr/include -Wstrict-prototypes -Wall -Wextra -Wno-sign-compare -Wpointer-arith -Wformat-security -Wswitch-enum -Wunused-parameter -Wbad-function-cast -Wcast-align -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-field-initializers -fno-strict-aliasing -mssse3 -I/usr/src/dpdk-16.07/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/include -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -g -O2 -MT lib/netdev-dpdk.lo -MD -MP -MF lib/.deps/netdev-dpdk.Tpo -c lib/netdev-dpdk.c -o lib/netdev-dpdk.o lib/netdev-dpdk.c: In function ‘__rte_pktmbuf_init’: lib/netdev-dpdk.c:293:5: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘RTE_MBUF_ASSERT’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] RTE_MBUF_ASSERT(mp->elt_size >= sizeof(struct dp_packet));
