1. Any comments regarding dpdk version?
2. As for ivshmem - we currently using native. However, you didn't include it in your tutorial. Should I configure it manually or is it already enabled by default (as part of the DPDK package on mlx site?
3. Note that in on one of your tutorials you have mentioned that CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_COMBINE_LIBS should be configured to N while in your tuturial above you claim that it should be configured to Y.
3. A more general question: We try to transmit data from two guests located in two different hosts (connected using mlx 40GB switch) and DPDK-OVS. We wanted to make sure that we do not miss anything: while dpdk is installed in both the host and guests OS, ovs installation is needed only in the hosts.
4. Have you tried configuring DPDK using virt-manager as well?
