Package: dpdk Version: 19.11-4~bpo10+1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
the dpdk systemd service has a pre-dependency that clashes with the openvswitch-nonetwork service from the openvswitch-switch package for OpenStack. [1] The dpdk.service requires "After=network-pre.target local-fs.target". This is problematic, as it clashes with the openvswitch-nonetwork "Before=network-pre.target" and creates a dependency cycle. However, when DPDK support is enabled in OVS (via configuration), dpdk.service becomes a startup After= dependency. This cannot be easily solved on OVS side, as OVS must start before network-pre so that is can configure the network itself. This issue had been discussed upstream: [2] A possible solution would be to remove the network-pre.target dependency in the dpdk service. I successfully run this patch on a number of systems (I also use the service to bind the network devices).
