Thanks for reply,
I am using Openstack-Ansible deployment tool to run Openstack. I am running a stable/ussuri release at the moment. current OVS package coming from rdo-dep repository of Ussuri release. It would be great if we have openvswitch+DPDK supported RPM for that repo, otherwise i am stuck here and i have to re-compile RPM myself and need to pushout with a custom repo. (Does victoria going to support the DPDK version of openvswitch?)
yes, Victoria has openvsiwtch 2.13 with dpdk enabled.
if you can move to victoria, it would be the easiest way and my recommendation.
[root@compute-1 SPECS]# ovs-vswitchd --version ovs-vswitchd (Open vSwitch) 2.12.0 [root@compute-1 SPECS]#
[root@compute-1 SPECS]# repoquery -i openvswitch Last metadata expiration check: 2:57:01 ago on Tue 03 Nov 2020 06:02:46 AM PST. Name : openvswitch Version : 2.12.0 Release : 1.1.el8 Architecture : aarch64 Size : 1.9 M Source : openvswitch-2.12.0-1.1.el8.src.rpm Repository : rdo-deps
[root@compute-1 SPECS]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/rdo-deps.repo [rdo-deps] module_hotfixes=1 baseurl = https://trunk.rdoproject.org/centos8-ussuri/deps/latest/
AFAIK, Ussuri should work also with 2.13 but you need to do some steps:
1. Add NFV SIG repository:
dnf install -y centos-release-nfv-openvswitch
2. Package name change in NFS SIG from openvswitch to openvswitch2.13 so you need some wrapper packages for compatibility. You can download those wrappers from https://cbs.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=31051 (you need all RPMs in noarch list), create a local repository with them and add it to all nodes in the cluster.
Update all nodes and you should get openvswitch updated to new packages openvswitch2.13 (and ovn2.13 if you are using ovn). Note that you may need to re-enable and restart openvswitch services manually after the update.

Folks,
Recently i started playing with openvswitch on centOS for openstack SDN, and found centos8 doesn't have openvswitch with dpdk support, I was looking around RPM but didn't find any RPM also, do i need to compile openviswtch+dpdk support or rpm is available but i am not aware of it.
The build of openvswitch included in Train and Ussuri,
openvswitch-2.12-1.el8 has dpdk support disabled as it doesn't work with the version of dpdk included in CentOS 8.2.
Since Victoria we have openvswitch 2.13 with dpdk enabled coming from
NFV SIG builds. We may backport this to Ussuri although we need to validate if it breaks updates somehow, so it's still work in progress.
RDO Victoria will be announced very soon (we are in the process of
pushing latest required builds to CentOS official mirrors today).
What version of RDO are you using and how are you deploying it? are you
using TripleO?, depending on it, we may be able to provide some workaround to update OpenvSwitch to the latest openvswitch manually.
Regards,
Alfredo
