Hi, I'm trying to run test-pmd application with virtual functions bound to vfio-pci. I'm able to bind and unbind the virtual functions from ixgbevf to vfio-pci and vice-versa And i'm seeing the below VF Initialization failure error, i can't seem to figure out what's going wrong here,
EAL: using IOMMU type 1 (Type 1) PMD: eth_ixgbevf_dev_init(): VF Initialization Failure: -15 EAL: Releasing pci mapped resource for 0000:04:10.0 EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0000:04:10.0 at 0x7f808ba00000 EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0000:04:10.0 at 0x7f808ba04000 EAL: Requested device 0000:04:10.0 cannot be used EAL: PCI device 0000:04:10.2 on NUMA socket 0 EAL: probe driver: 8086:10ed net_ixgbe_vf EAL: using IOMMU type 1 (Type 1) PMD: eth_ixgbevf_dev_init(): VF Initialization Failure: -15 EAL: Releasing pci mapped resource for 0000:04:10.2 EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0000:04:10.2 at 0x7f808ba08000 EAL: Calling pci_unmap_resource for 0000:04:10.2 at 0x7f808ba0c000 EAL: Requested device 0000:04:10.2 cannot be used Here's some more information: I'm using dpdk-17.11. Created Virtual functions on Intel 82599ES 10G cards. Bound these vfs to vfio-pci. And tried to run the test-pmd. Any advise is appreciated. Thanks, -DG
