This bug was fixed in the package dpdk - 2.2.0-0ubuntu8 --------------- dpdk (2.2.0-0ubuntu8) xenial; urgency=medium
* d/p/ubuntu-backport-[36-37] fix virtio issues (LP: #1570195): - don't let DPDK initialize virtio devices still in use by the kernel - this avoids conflicts between kernel and dpdk usage of those devices - an admin now has to unbind/bind devices as on physical hardware - this is in the dpdk 16.04 release and delta can then be dropped - d/dpdk-doc.README.Debian update for changes in virtio-pci handling - d/dpdk.interfaces update for changes in virtio-pci handling * d/p/ubuntu-backport-38... fix for memory leak (LP: #1570466): - call vhost_destroy_device on removing vhost user ports to fix memory leak - this likely is in the dpdk 16.07 release and delta can then be dropped * d/p/ubuntu-fix-vhost-user-socket-permission.patch fox (LP: #1546565): - when vhost_user sockets are created they are owner:group of the process - the DPDK api to create those has no way to specify owner:group - to fix that without breaking the API and potential workaround code in consumers of the library like openvswitch 2.6 for example. This patch adds an EAL commandline option to specify user:group created vhost_user sockets should have. -- Christian Ehrhardt <christian.ehrha...@canonical.com> Mon, 25 Apr 2016 11:42:40 +0200 ** Changed in: dpdk (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1570466 Title: Adding/removing ports leaks memory in dpdk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpdk/+bug/1570466/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
