Hi, I am seeking help regarding DPDK 2.1.0 -rc3 as well as DPDK 2.0.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 (Kernel 3.19.0-031900-generic) and openvswitchdpdk.l.1.1.0-27.gz.
I can install both DPDK-versions without errors by help of following commands: export RTE_SDK=$(pwd) export RTE_TARGET="x86_64-ivshmem-linuxapp-gcc" make CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_COMBINE_LIBS=y CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB=y install T="$RTE_TARGET" But when I try to compile the Open vSwitch by help of following commands: ./boot.sh ./configure RTE_SDK=$(RTE_SDK) --disable-ssl make I always get following errors: lib/dpdk-link.c:25:24: fatal error: rte_config.h: No such file or directory #include <rte_config.h> compilation terminated. make[2]: *** [lib/dpdk-link.o] Error 1 make[2]: Directory ??/root/ovs_dpdk/openvswitch?? is left make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Directory ??/root/ovs_dpdk/openvswitch?? is left make: *** [all] Error 2 Tried Workarounds: Workaround 1: Tried to copy the file rte_config.h (found in dpdk/include/) manually to openvswitch/lib Result 1: Still couldn't make the build Workaround 2: Setting the RTE_SDK variable to dpdk/x86_64-ivshmem-linuxapp-gcc path instead of just to dpdk path Result 2: Still couldn't make the build Workaround 3: Use DPDK 1.7.1 Result 3: Can't even compile DPDK 1.7.1 Thanks! Stefan.
