Hi, I also have the same question in l3fwd example. I guess may DPDK don't support the chip-set so that we got this error msg.
In my system, I have 2 kinds of chip-set, 82580 & 82574L. If I use l3fwd -c 3 -n 1 -- -p 3 --config '(0,0,0),(1,0,1)' in 82574L, it will get the error msg. But when I change my card with 82580 and use the same command to execute DPDK l3fwd. It's working. So, maybe the root cause is the DPDK does not support your chip-set and send out this error msg.
