Trying to connect a VM to the example/vhost switch application. The
dpdk-vhost command line and output as follows:
$ sudo ./build/examples/dpdk-vhost -l 120-127 -n 4 --socket-mem
0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2048 --no-pci -- -p 1 --socket-file /tmp/sock0

VM configuration in the libvirt XML as follows:
<interface type='vhostuser'>
<mac address='52:54:00:f8:1a:b4'/>
<source type='unix' path='/tmp/sock0' mode='server'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<driver queues='4' rx_queue_size='1024' tx_queue_size='1024'>
<host csum='on' gso='on'/>
<guest csum='on' tso4='on' tso6='on' ecn='on'/>
</driver>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x01'
function='0x0'/>
</interface>
VM fails to start with the following error:
$ sudo virsh start --console dpdk-server-0
error: Failed to start domain dpdk-server-0
error: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor:
2021-03-03T22:16:20.767940Z qemu-system-ppc64: -chardev
socket,id=charnet0,path=/tmp/sock0,server: Failed to unlink socket
/tmp/sock0: Operation not permitted
I'm able to start the VM with OVS/DPDK (2.15.0/20.11) and testpmd from
DPDK, but not the vhost switch application. Any suggestions?
