Hi Ben,

Thanks for your hint about ovs dpdk!. I have done something according to: 
https://docs.openvswitch.org/en/latest/intro/install/dpdk/ and 
https://docs.openvswitch.org/en/latest/intro/install/general/#general-building. 
But now I met a problem. (I think I have done with dpdk part because no errors 
showed)
About the ovs part, I did
$ ./configure 
--with-dpdk=/usr/src/dpdk-stable-17.11.1/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
$ make
$ make install
$ export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/share/openvswitch/scripts
$ ovs-ctl start 
(Here I met a problem) like:
ovsdb-tool: error while loading shared libraries: librte_eal.so.6.1: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory
 * /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db does not exist
ovsdb-tool: error while loading shared libraries: librte_eal.so.6.1: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory
 * Creating empty database /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db


I have searched but didn't find a good one. Could you help me to figure out 
where I am wrong? I am using Ubuntu 16.04.4, ovs 2.9.0, dpdk 17.11.1. Thank you!




Best regards,
Mingming
