Introduction:
I am working on adding hardware acceleration support in OVS. The
hardware has multiple ethernet ports, SRIO-V and switching capability.

Issue:
How to add these physical ports to OVS bridge? I am trying to
understand, whether to connect all the physical ports as a single port
to OVS bridge or not.

Can someone suggest how to handle this case?

There's some interesting work going on in SnabbSwitch using SR-IOV to get incoming packets onto the right core and then using a vSwitch to perform its normal processing. It seems like this optimization could also be used in OVS.

The part that I don't understand is how to get SR-IOV to work with LAG.
