This must be possible provided that DPDK poll mode driver available for 
mellanox NICs too. But I haven’t tried out DPDK with mellanox NICs.
You have to compile the DPDK library from ‘http://www.dpdk.org/’ and bind the 
NIC to the DPDK driver.
The ‘INSTALL.DPDK.md’ in the openvswitch repo will be good place to start.

Has anyone here been able to use openvswitch/dpdk with a mellanox connectx-3 
card ?
