(Get the code!)
I agree this is probably a bit misleading. The dpdk-socket-cores option sets the dpdk-lcore-mask option on Openvswitch, which determines where the non-datapath ovs-dpdk threads (i.e. handler, revalidator) run.
The option does not exist today to set the pmd-cpu-mask, which are the cores used for datapath packet processing.
A new option will need to be introduced in order to be able to set the pmd-cpu-mask and the dpdk-socket-cores option will need to be clarified in the documentation.
