82599ES is not listed in lib/librte_eal/common/ include/rte_pci_dev_ids.h On the other hand, 82599EB (which works okay with DPDK) is not listed there either. > Can you verify that you have bound your device to "igb_uio", perhaps using "tools/pci_unbind.py" (maybe renamed to tools/igb_uio_bind.py)? Yes: $ sudo pci_unbind.py --status Network devices using IGB_UIO driver ==================================== 0000:07:00.0 '82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network Connection' drv=igb_uio unused= > You might also try to edit the ".config" (in your build directory, NOT the Linux .config) to enable any of the "CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IXGBE_ DEBUG_*" options, in case there are more error messages. I enabled debugging as you said, and run testpmd app. It ends with an error "Cause: No probed ethernet devices - check that CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IGB_PMD=y and that CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_EM_PMD=y and that CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IXGBE_PMD=y in your configuration file" Here is the detailed debug output: http://pastebin.com/tWkUZBKj Thanks, -hs On Mon, Mar 31, 2014 at 1:38 PM, Shaw, Jeffrey B <jeffrey.b.shaw at intel.com>wrote: > Can you check if your PCI device ID is listed in > "lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_pci_dev_ids.h"? > Can you verify that you have bound your device to "igb_uio", perhaps using > "tools/pci_unbind.py" (maybe renamed to tools/igb_uio_bind.py)? > You might also try to edit the ".config" (in your build directory, NOT the > Linux .config) to enable any of the "CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IXGBE_DEBUG_*" > options, in case there are more error messages. > > Thanks, > Jeff > > -----Original Message----- > From: dev [mailto:dev-bounces at dpdk.org] On Behalf Of HS > Sent: Monday, March 31, 2014 10:30 AM > To: dev at dpdk.org > Subject: [dpdk-dev] 82599ES NIC support > > Hi, > > I was trying to test DPDK 1.6 with "82599ES" Intel NIC, but noticed that > DPDK does not seem to work with this NIC.
