'dpdk' ports no longer have naming restrictions. Now, instead of specifying the dpdk port ID as part of the name, the PCI address of the device must be specified via the 'dpdk-devargs' option. eg. ovs-vsctl add-port br0 my-port ovs-vsctl set Interface my-port type=dpdk options:dpdk-devargs=0000:06:00.3 The user must no longer hotplug attach DPDK ports by issuing the specific ovs-appctl netdev-dpdk/attach command. The hotplug is now automatically invoked when a valid PCI address is set in the dpdk-devargs. The format for ovs-appctl netdev-dpdk/detach command has changed in that the user now must specify the relevant PCI address as input instead of the port name.
