Hi there, OVS 2.4 is not compatible with DPDK 2.1 (or above). Looking at the DPDK 2.1 implementation you will discover the reason.
https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/commit/18f777b2870a12431741ad37f95316bfe78989e5 "Note that this breaks compatibility with DPDK v2.0.0 although only for the library name change." Also, not only OVS 2.5 has a lot of improvements but also DPDK 2.2 and 2.1 over the version 2.0 specially about MSI/MSI-X.
