Hi All, After successful deployment of OVS (2.4) -DPDK (2.0) on HP GEN 7 blade , I tried to activate it also on HP GEN9 (BL460C), got DMA error ("PTE Read access is not set" , see attached file).
I found several discussions describing similar scenarios (for HP GEN8), http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.networking.dpdk.devel/22140 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.networking.dpdk.devel/2281 But couldn't find any solution/work around , you can find below compute details. Your help is highly appreciated.
