[ovs-dev] The “overlay” mode issue while setting up OVS with DPDK

[Sandeep Adapala]

I have configured the grub as

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G
hugepages=16 hugepagesz=2M hugepages=2048 iommu=pt intel_iommu=on"


I didn't isolate any cores so if I want to use core 2 or 3 what will
be the dpdk-lcore-mask and pod-cpu-mask?
