Hi, all
  I want to run pktgen with ovs, and I follow some tutorials in the network
but I ran into some problems related to socket ID:

I use cmd below to run the pktgen:
  export DPDK_PARAMS="-c 0x19 --master-lcore 3 -m 512 --file-prefix pktgen
--no-pci
--vdev=net_virtio_user1,mac=00:00:00:00:00:01,path=/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/vhost-user1
--vdev=net_virtio_user2,mac=00:00:00:00:00:02,path=/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/vhost-user2
"
  export PKTGEN_PARAMS='-T -P -m "0.0,4.1"'
  sudo -E ./app/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/pktgen $DPDK_PARAMS --
$PKTGEN_PARAMS

As for ovs, I use cmd below to set up the virtual switch with vhost user
port:
  sudo ./utilities/ovs-vsctl add-br br0 -- set bridge br0
datapath_type=netdev
  sudo ./utilities/ovs-vsctl add-port br0 vhost-user1 -- set Interface
vhost-user1 type=dpdkvhostuser
  sudo ./utilities/ovs-vsctl add-port br0 vhost-user2 -- set Interface
vhost-user2 type=dpdkvhostuser

Finally, I ran pktgen in the same ubuntu16.04 virtual machine which ovs run.

I have no idea why this error occurs and cannot solve it, so I come to ask
for your help.

Many thanks,
House
