Hi Ian,

Yes, I am using OVS-2.6.1 release.

And yes, you are correct.

*ovs-vsctl add-port br0 dpdk-p1 -- set Interface dpdk-p1 type=dpdk*, infact
fails in 2.6.1;

whereas, *ovs-vsctl add-port br0 dpdk1 -- set Interface dpdk1 type=dpdk, *
succeeds.


As regards the use of



*options:dpdk-devargs=0000:00:0a.0*



It is only needed if you are using arbitrary port naming/hotplug support
which is included in OVS 2.7.0.

This answers my query.

But, If i may continue to ask a related query: from the dpdk log..

Since I have done the binding 09.0 and 0a.0 to igb_uio driver, shouldn't we
see 'igb_uio' instead of 'net_i40e'?


Also, what is OVS-2.6.1's version on options:dpdk-devargs='....', by that I
mean, how does the dpdk port know which interface should it bind to when
its not specified..


Best Regards

Advith Nagappa
