> Hello,

Hi Luca,
while my tests won't achieve the coverage of the bigger labs I still
wanted to mention that I've built this for Ubuntu (21.04) and successfully
ran some OVS-DPDK based tests on it.
Directly in the format for the .rst file

* Canonical(R) Testing

   * Build tests of DPDK & OVS 2.15.0 on Ubuntu 21.04 (meson based)
   * Functional and performance tests based on OVS-DPDK on x86_64
   * Autopkgtests for DPDK and OpenvSwitch
