Hi,
I'm trying to do OVS DPDK vhost port passthrough to a container resides in the VM.
Here are steps followed:
1. Add DPDK port into OVS integration bridge.
2. Bring up an Ubuntu VM using virsh with vhostuser interface configuration.
<interface type='vhostuser'>
<mac address='52:54:00:cd:ef:44'/>
<source type='unix' path='/var/run/openvswitch/vhost-user-2' mode='client'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<driver queues='4'/>
<alias name='net2'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x12' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
3. In the VM, convert this virtio port into DPDK network device.
How this DPDK interface can attached with docker container ?
After the configuration, I would like to run a sample DPDK application (example: testpmd) on the container.
Thanks,
Periyasamy
