Topology is 2 Simple ports with a Single Bridge as shown below (with OVS and DPDK installed on Ubuntu 14.04):
ovs-vsctl add-br bridge0 -- set bridge bridge0 datapath_type=netdev ovs-vsctl add-port bridge0 dpdk0 -- set Interface dpdk0 type=dpdk ovs-vsctl add-port bridge0 dpdk1 -- set Interface dpdk1 type=dpdk Error what we see here : Bridge "bridge0" Port "dpdk0" Interface "dpdk0" type: dpdk error: "could not open network device dpdk0 (Address family not supported by protocol)" Port "dpdk1" Interface "dpdk1" type: dpdk error: "could not open network device dpdk1 (Address family not supported by protocol)" Same Topology with OVS-DPDK package installed on Ubuntu 16.04: ovs-vsctl add-br br0 -- set bridge br0 datapath_type=netdev ovs-vsctl add-port br0 vhost-user1 -- set Interface vhost-user1 type=dpdkvhostuser ovs-vsctl add-port br0 vhost-user2 -- set Interface vhost-user2 type=dpdkvhostuser Error which we see here is : "qemu-system-x86_64: -object memory-backend-file,id=mem,size=512M,mem-path=/dev/hugepages,share=on: unable to map backing store for hugepages: We need to understand if there is something which is missed as part of the Hugepages configuration for both the above installations. Or do you have a better Solution to deal with such basic topologies with DPDK.
