Hi, I have a question about deploying openvswitch with DPDK

As we know, normal network package will first go through openvswitch.ko to find 
a flow table entry in the kernel, if not found, then the package will go to 
user mode to look for the flow table entry.


But If we use DPDK, the package arriving at the DPDK port directly goes to the 
user mode, will it go to the kernel mode again and then back to user mode? or 
it just looks for the flow table entry in the user mode and bypass the kernel 
flow table directly.


Thanks


Yours
