Hi, OVS 2.3.2 supports DPDK 1.6, as stated in INSTALL.DPDK. Many APIs have changed in DPDK in a backward incompatible way.
Also, DPDK support in OVS 2.3.2 is experimental. It would be better to use the code from branch-2.4 (with DPDK 2.0) Daniele On 22/06/2015 23:30, "Sundar Ramakrishnan" <sundar_ra...@yahoo.com> wrote: > >Hello, > > >I am a newbie to this environment and I am unable to find which release >of DPDK works fine with Openvswitch.
