Here's a reproducer: juju deploy ubuntu # onto a vm or metal, can't repro with lxd juju ssh ubuntu/0 sudo apt-get install openvswitch-switch -y juju ssh ubuntu/0 'sudo ovs-vsctl add-br br0; sudo ovs-vsctl add-port br0 dpdk-p0 -- set Interface dpdk-p0 type=dpdk options:dpdk-devargs=0000:01:00.0'
Error output from the add-port command is: ovs-vsctl: Error detected while setting up 'dpdk-p0': could not open network device dpdk-p0 (Address family not supported by protocol). See ovs-vswitchd log for details. ovs-vsctl: The default log directory is "/var/log/openvswitch". You can then query 'ovs-vsctl show' and see: Bridge br0 Port dpdk-p0 Interface dpdk-p0 type: dpdk options: {dpdk-devargs="0000:01:00.0"} error: "could not open network device dpdk-p0 (Address family not supported by protocol)" Port br0 Interface br0 type: internal ovs-vsctl -f csv list Interface | grep 'not supported' provides a response that could also be alerted on as an active configuration issue rather than alerting on presence of the log entry. $ sudo ovs-vsctl -f csv list Interface |grep 'not supported' 556792cf-733a-48fd-aeb1-9423c68e354e,[],{},{},[],[],[],[],[],[],[],[],"""could not open network device dpdk-p0 (Address family not supported by protocol)""",{},[],0,0,[],[],[],[],{},[],[],[],[],dpdk-p0,-1,[],"{dpdk-devargs=""0000:01:00.0""}",{},{},{},dpdk ** Also affects: charm-neutron-openvswitch Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: charm-neutron-gateway Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: charm-ovn-chassis Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1912847 Title: ovs-vswitchd should consider lack of DPDK support fatal To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/charm-neutron-gateway/+bug/1912847/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
