[ovs-discuss] How to build and insert "eventfd" module

[Shivapriya Hiremath]

Hi,

I have built dpdk and ovs-dpdk with the patch for vhost(mentioned above).

After this command: "make eventfd && insmod <toplevel ovs
dir>/utilities/eventfd_link.ko" ,it gives me " No rule to make target
'eventfd'.Stop"

I guess I am missing some step here. Can you please tell me what I am
missing?

Thank you.

Regards,
Shivapriya Hiremath
