[Pei Zhang <pezhang@redhat.com>]

Hello Xueming,

The testing with dpdk 20.11.2-rc1 from Red Hat looks good. We tested below
16 scenarios and all got PASS on RHEL8:

(1)Guest with device assignment(PF) throughput testing(1G hugepage size):
PASS
(2)Guest with device assignment(PF) throughput testing(2M hugepage size) :
PASS
(3)Guest with device assignment(VF) throughput testing: PASS
(4)PVP (host dpdk testpmd as vswitch) 1Q: throughput testing: PASS
(5)PVP vhost-user 2Q throughput testing: PASS
(6)PVP vhost-user 1Q - cross numa node throughput testing: PASS
(7)Guest with vhost-user 2 queues throughput testing: PASS
(8)vhost-user reconnect with dpdk-client, qemu-server: qemu reconnect: PASS
(9)vhost-user reconnect with dpdk-client, qemu-server: ovs reconnect: PASS
(10)PVP 1Q live migration testing: PASS
(11)PVP 1Q cross numa node live migration testing: PASS
(12)Guest with ovs+dpdk+vhost-user 1Q live migration testing: PASS
(13)Guest with ovs+dpdk+vhost-user 1Q live migration testing (2M): PASS
(14)Guest with ovs+dpdk+vhost-user 2Q live migration testing: PASS
(15)Host PF + DPDK testing: PASS
(16)Host VF + DPDK testing: PASS
