Unless testpmd and pktgen are not linked the same way to your DPDK installation/build directory. > I have increased my hugepages besides its throwing the same error while I > can run the pktgen application with vfio-pci driver. > I'm looking forward on testing pktgen application with openNIC driver. openNIC seems an out of tree driver from AMD/Xilinx. The DPDK upstream developers don't know much about this. You will need to contact the authors if you face issues with this driver. Some comment below, as the problem still seems a generic DPDK issue. > > Below are the logs, > > sudo ./usr/local/bin/pktgen -l 1-8 -n 4 --vdev="net_pcap0,iface=enp1s0f0" > --vdev="net_pcap1,iface=enp1s0f1" -d librte_net_pcap.so -- -m [2:3].0 -m > [5:8].1 > > Copyright(c) <2010-2021>, Intel Corporation.

Rather than pass only one driver in the command line, you'd better pass the directory where all the compiled DPDK drivers are. That will be much easier than having to cherry pick every driver you need. -- David Marchand
