Thank you Olga
What I'm trying to do is to run ovs-dpdk w connectx4 card, I don't care about 
the versions but only try to  find a  combination of versions (dpdk/ovs/kernel) 
that is working.
As you've suggested,  now I'm working with dpdk.17.05 (ovs 2.8.1) .
I'm following the http://dpdk.org/doc/guides-17.05/nics/mlx5.html
And I have compilation error when building dpdk  - [ note that  dpdk 18.02 and 
dpdk.17.11 build pass ok, but then ovs failed with undefined mlx ref.]

Dpdk.17.05 - compilation error:
--------------
In file included from 
/home/avi/dpdk-stable-17.05.2/drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5.h:68:0,
from /home/avi/dpdk-stable-17.05.2/drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5.c:67:
/home/avi/dpdk-stable-17.05.2/drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_rxtx.h:46:32: fatal error: 
infiniband/mlx5_hw.h: No such file or directory

Best Regards
Avi
