Hi David, For my understanding, is part being woken up by a RX interrupt not desirable? I am under the assumption that all NICs do support rx-interrupts through the fd. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Will take a look at Kevin's patch and try it out as well.

We have been working on the power saving topic for a while and Kevin had proposed an alternative that does not require hw/driver assistance. For now, my idea on using dpdk interrupts is put on hold unless some needs arise. It would be great if you could look at and test Kevin patch: https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__patchwork.ozlabs.org_project_openvswitch_patch_20221129140131.361338-2D1-2Dktraynor-40redhat.com_&d=DwIBaQ&c=s883GpUCOChKOHiocYtGcg&r=1sd3waKor_ps6hs2j0tfqmW6ts2tlVvmmMySlXCPN6w&m=myKkErCB3zuTvahDVr9Kn2XxyqgStbO5DorUIZyXluMTdl2XjeDPlYGCl9lIFhnw&s=m1Z3EvUIizkTYbgOe7RtLXoraM-4Caw8Aq2nICx3uFY&e= Thanks! -- David Marchand _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
