Hello
Are there 'numbers' for performance - OvS-DPDK vs XDP-eBPF for container networking.
Since the DPDK and linux-containers are not compatible, is a sense that container and host share the same kernel - hence pkts received at OvS-DPDK at user-space and directed to a linux container - should be go down to the kernel and then to the container ip-stack, while in XDP-eBPF this pkt can be forward to the container ip-stack directly from the kernel.
I heard that a vhostuser interface for containers is 'in-working' stage.
Can anyone assist with the performance numbers and the status of this vhost-user for containers ?
Best Regards
Avi
