Hi,

I don't see any errors relating to the dpdk interfaces. But it is also not 
clear where the user-space drivers are bound and the hugepage memory is set up. 
So double check those two items.

Is the dpdk-p0 interface being attached to br-flat? Even if there are issues 
with the dpdk port the bridge should not be deleted (at least not automatically 
by OvS).

Can you confirm with 'ovs-vsctl show' that the br-flat is actually not present 
after the agent is restarted. And that the dpdk-p0 is not reporting an error.

What does the neutron-openmvswitch-agent logs say?

Also run ovsdb-tool -mmm show-log which might give a clue as to when and how 
br-flat is being modified.

Regards,
Billy
