Justin, Is there an anticipated date on when 2.4 will be available? ‹Gil On 9/24/14, 5:49 PM, "Justin Pettit" wrote: >On September 19, 2014 at 9:39:09 AM, MCGRATH, GIL ([email protected]) wrote: >> I am looking into the use of DPDK with OVS. >> >> I am a bit confused on the following: >> >> * What is the status of DPDK support in OVS? > >It's still a work in progress, but it is functional in our "master" >branch, and we're getting impressive performance with it. > >> * What releases does this work or will work in? > >It's not in a current release yet, but it will be included as part of OVS >2.4. > >> * What is the status of the DPDK support githiub openvswitch/ovs? > >It is working.

It's definitely stable enough to try out, but I wouldn't run it in production yet. We know that there are a couple of issues related to multi-threading, which we're planning to tackle next week. If you run into any problems, let us know on the mailing list. --Justin ___ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Can I try it - is it stable enough ? Does the does say enough to set it up?

It's still a work in progress, but it is functional in our "master" branch, and we're getting impressive performance with it. > * What releases does this work or will work in? It's not in a current release yet, but it will be included as part of OVS 2.4. > * What is the status of the DPDK support githiub openvswitch/ovs? It is working. For NFV and vswitch applications, there are two bigs omissions at the moment. First, there is no tunneling support, but that is being actively worked on. Second, there's no vhost support, which prevents getting traffic to VMs. We expect to get a contribution for that support in the next couple of weeks. Both of these issues should be resolved before OVS 2.4 is released. > * What is the relationship to the openvswitch in github.com/01org/dpdk-ovs? The 01.org project pre-dates the mainstream OVS work. The one that's being developed as part of the OVS mainstream will follow OVS development going forward, and expect it to perform better than the one from 01.org. Intel has been contributing to our mainstream release as well. --Justin ___ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
