I followed the steps mentioned in the documentation to install OVS with
DPDK datapath.
$ export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/share/openvswitch/scripts
$ ovs-ctl --no-ovs-vswitchd start
$ export DB_SOCK=/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock
$ ovs-vsctl --no-wait set Open_vSwitch . other_config:dpdk-init=true
$ ovs-ctl --no-ovsdb-server --db-sock="$DB_SOCK" start
On executing the last step I got this error:
root@dpdk-OptiPlex-5040:/usr/local/src/openvswitch-2.11.0# ovs-ctl
--no-ovsdb-server --db-sock="$DB_SOCK" start
ovs-vswitchd: unrecognized option '--vhost-owner'
Usage: ovs-vswitchd [options]
EAL common options:
-c COREMASK Hexadecimal bitmask of cores to run on
-l CORELIST List of cores to run on
The argument format is <c1>[-c2][,c3[-c4],...]
where c1, c2, etc are core indexes between 0 and 128
--lcores COREMAP Map lcore set to physical cpu set
The argument format is
'<lcores[@cpus]>[<,lcores[@cpus]>...]'
lcores and cpus list are grouped by '(' and ')'
Within the group, '-' is used for range separator,
',' is used for single number separator.
'( )' can be omitted for single element group,
'@' can be omitted if cpus and lcores have the same
value
