Hi Michael, this seems to confuse people regularly, so instead of just answering questions as last time I went over the whole bug again to summarize. Thanks for being persistent pitti and mwhudson!
TL;DR please unsubscribe sponsors and SRU Verification Summary: Upstream DPDK & Openvswitch (and libvirt): This is a back and forth discussion who should fix it and who not. It is essentially looping around with no project accepting a fix yet and leaving the overall solution (OVS+DPDK on KVM Guests) unusable for end users. That is why we carry the delta for now - DPDK to provide the option, Openvswitch to show an example how to exploit the option. DPDK (fix to make option available): - fixed in Yakkety 2.2.0-0ubuntu9 - fixed in Xenial 2.2.0-0ubuntu8 - Debian (I'm co-leading the Debian effort, the fix is in there already) neutron-openvswitch Juju Charms Collection (exploit this from charms): - already fixed in 4f6e2ca2 by James Page Openvswitch (just add example to default config): - the debdiff of #6 should have gone to Xenial - since we now have yakkety I'll add another debdiff for yakkety - Debian needs to get a recent Openvswitch first and the DPDK with the patch before we can push - given that: - upstream hasn't decided on a solution yet - it is only the example that we wanted to be extended - it is covered in https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/serverguide/DPDK.html#dpdk-openvswitch => I think we can drop this for now. ** Changed in: openvswitch (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Won't Fix ** Changed in: openvswitch (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: Triaged => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1546565 Title: Ownership/Permissions of vhost_user sockets for openvswitch-dpdk make them unusable by libvirt/qemu/kvm To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpdk/+bug/1546565/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
