Hi, Aaron.
Thank you for reply.
You will need to use populate this option into other_config:dpdk-extra
in the ovsdb.
ovs-vsctl --no-wait set Open_vSwitch \
. other_config:dpdk-extra="--base-virtaddr=..."
-> I tried to use "struct rte_memseg *m = rte_eal_get_physmem_layout()"
option based on (http://dpdk.org/doc/api/structrte__memseg.html).
Always it returns different number.
How do I get virtual address value to use it as an input of "base-viraddr"?
I don't know the base virtual address value you should use, however.
-> Do you mean it will not help?
Thanks,
Junguk
