Hi Daniele,
I fixed the patch based on your comments:
OVS reports that link state of a vhost-user port (type=dpdkvhostuser) is DOWN,
even when traffic is running through the port between a Virtual Machine and the
vSwitch.
Changing admin state with the "ovs-ofctl mod-port <BR> <PORT> up/down" command
over OpenFlow does affect neither the reported link state nor the traffic.
The patch below does the flowing:
- Triggers link state change by altering netdev's change_seq member.
- Controls sending/receiving of packets through vhost-user port according to
the port's current admin state.
- Sets admin state of newly created vhost-user port to UP.
