Thanks Jianfeng,
For containers that are *not running*  DPDK  -  are there any thoughts to develop a 'virtio like' device? , for example to connect the container to OVS-DPDK ? 
I've tested the performance of a container connected to OVS-DPDK  via vdev-af_packet  and processed by virtual PMD, and its performance is good [uses mmap'ed to userspace  - zero copy RX/TX ring buffer]
but not good as  the performance  of a  VM connected  to OVS-DPDK (@host) via vhost-user virtio.
Best Regards
avi
