Commit Message

Phelan, Michael Sept. 29, 2022, 5:03 p.m. UTC
Update OVS CLI and relevant documentation to use DPDK 20.11.6.

A bug was introduced in DPDK 20.11.5 by the commit
33f2e3756186 ("vhost: fix unsafe vring addresses modifications").
This bug can cause a deadlock when vIOMMU is enabled
and NUMA reallocation of the virtqueues happen.
A fix [1] has been posted and pushed to the DPDK 20.11 branch.
If a user wishes to avoid the issue then it is recommended to use
DPDK 20.11.4 until the release of DPDK 20.11.7.
It should be noted that DPDK 20.11.4 does not benefit from
the numerous bug fixes addressed since its release.
If a user wishes to benefit from these fixes it is recommended
to use DPDK 20.11.6.

Signed-off-by: Michael Phelan <michael.phelan@intel.com>

v3:
  - Update recommended meson version.
  - Refactor commit message.

v2:
  - Update recommended DPDK version for older OvS versions in Documentation.

I think it might have been worth to upgrade meson upgrade as a separate 
commit or mentioned in this one, so it can easily be found in git log. 
But I don't want to keep nit-picking on these patches, so will Ack as is 
and let the maintainers decide if they want to split out/add to commit msg.

reviewed, ran basic PVP (on v1), ran github actions.

I was happy to keep the change as part of the patch as the DPDK version being updated requires the meson change.

Thanks for review Kevin, units tests in the Intel CI we were run and passed (were unrelated to the DPDK changes). applied.

+   - DPDK:
+     * OVS validated with DPDK 20.11.6.
+       DPDK 20.11.6 requires a meson version of 0.48.1 or higher.
+       A bug was introduced in DPDK 20.11.5 by the commit
+       33f2e3756186 ("vhost: fix unsafe vring addresses modifications").
+       This bug can cause a deadlock when vIOMMU is enabled and NUMA
+       reallocation of the virtqueues happen.
+       A fix has been posted and pushed to the DPDK 20.11 branch.
+       It can be found here:
+       https://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20220725203206.427083-2-david.marchand@redhat.com/.
+       If a user wishes to avoid the issue then it is recommended to use
+       DPDK 20.11.4 until the release of DPDK 20.11.7.
+       It should be noted that DPDK 20.11.4 does not benefit from the numerous
+       bug fixes addressed since its release.
+       If a user wishes to benefit from these fixes it is recommended to use
+       DPDK 20.11.6.
