Thanks for the reply. Upon further debugging, I was able to root caused the issue. In the cgroup, in addition to limiting the CPU, I also limited the node where my OVS can allocate the memory (cpuset.mems). I understand that DPDK first grab all the memory, then pick the best memory pages, then rele

I am setting up OVS inside a Linux container. This OVS is built using DPDK library. During the startup of ovs-vswitchd, it core dumped due to fail to mmap. in eal_memory.c virtaddr = mmap(vma_addr, hugepage_sz, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0); This call is m
