This bug was fixed in the package dpdk - 2.2.0-0ubuntu8

---------------
dpdk (2.2.0-0ubuntu8) xenial; urgency=medium

  * d/p/ubuntu-backport-[36-37] fix virtio issues (LP: #1570195):
    - don't let DPDK initialize virtio devices still in use by the kernel
    - this avoids conflicts between kernel and dpdk usage of those devices
    - an admin now has to unbind/bind devices as on physical hardware
    - this is in the dpdk 16.04 release and delta can then be dropped
    - d/dpdk-doc.README.Debian update for changes in virtio-pci handling
    - d/dpdk.interfaces update for changes in virtio-pci handling
  * d/p/ubuntu-backport-38... fix for memory leak (LP: #1570466):
    - call vhost_destroy_device on removing vhost user ports to fix memory leak
    - this likely is in the dpdk 16.07 release and delta can then be dropped
  * d/p/ubuntu-fix-vhost-user-socket-permission.patch fox (LP: #1546565):
    - when vhost_user sockets are created they are owner:group of the process
    - the DPDK api to create those has no way to specify owner:group
    - to fix that without breaking the API and potential workaround code in
      consumers of the library like openvswitch 2.6 for example. This patch
      adds an EAL commandline option to specify user:group created vhost_user
      sockets should have.

Bug description:
  Guys,

   I'm facing an issue here with both "ethtool" and "ip", while trying
  to manage black-listed by DPDK PCI VirtIO devices.

   You'll need an Ubuntu Xenial KVM guest, with 4 VirtIO vNIC cards, to
  run those tests

   PCI device example from inside a Xenial guest:

  ---
  # lspci | grep Ethernet
  00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio network device
  00:04.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio network device
  00:05.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio network device
  00:06.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc Virtio network device
  ---

  Where "ens3" is the first / default interface, attached to Libvirt's
  "default" network. The "ens4" is reserved for "ethtool / ip" tests
  (attached to another Libvirt's network without IPs or DHCP), "ens5"
  will be "dpdk0" and "ens6" "dpdk1"...

  ---
   *** How it works?

   1- For example, try to enable multi-queue on DPDK's devices, boot
  your Xenial guest, and run:

   ethtool -L ens5 combined 4
   ethtool -L ens6 combined 4

   2- Install openvswitch-switch-dpdk configure DPDK and OVS and fire it
  up.

   https://help.ubuntu.com/16.04/serverguide/DPDK.html

   service openvswitch-switch stop
   service dpdk stop

   OVS DPDK Options (/etc/default/openvswitch-switch):

  --
  DPDK_OPTS='--dpdk -c 0x1 -n 4 --socket-mem 1024 --pci-blacklist 0000:00:03.0,0000:00:04.0'
  --

   service dpdk start
   service openvswitch-switch start

   - Enable multi-queue on OVS+DPDK inside of the VM:

   ovs-vsctl set Open_vSwitch . other_config:n-dpdk-rxqs=4
   ovs-vsctl set Open_vSwitch . other_config:pmd-cpu-mask=0xff00

   * Multi-queue apparently works! ovs-vswitchd consumes more that 100%
  of CPU, meaning that it multi-queue is there...

   *** Where it fails?

   1- Reboot the VM and try to run ethtool again (or go straight to 2
  below):

   ethtool -L ens5 combined 4

   2- Try to fire up ens4:

   ip link set dev ens4 up

  
   # FAIL! Both commands hangs, consuming 100% of guest's CPU...

   So, it looks like a Linux fault, because it is "allowing" the DPDK
  VirtIO App (a user land App), to interfere with kernel devices in a
  strange way...

  Best,
  Thiago
