DPDK version:16.07 OS: Ubuntu 15:04 dual-port Intel X710 10GbE PCI-Express NICs
I have installed the modules, ran the tool to bind them to the NICs, running gdb over skeleton/basicfwd example shows that rte_eal_init completes, but it fails at the even number of ports check since rte_eth_dev_count returns 0. I have tried the examples with and without -w flags. Any help is appreciated. python ./dpdk-devbind.py --status Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver ============================================ 0000:04:00.0 'Ethernet Controller X710 for 10GbE SFP+' drv=igb_uio unused= 0000:04:00.1 'Ethernet Controller X710 for 10GbE SFP+' drv=igb_uio unused= Network devices using kernel driver =================================== 0000:02:00.0 'NetXtreme BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe' if=eth0 drv=tg3 unused=igb_uio *Active* 0000:02:00.1 'NetXtreme BCM5720 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe' if=eth1 drv=tg3 unused=igb_uio 0000:06:00.0 'I350 Gigabit Network Connection' if=eth2 drv=igb unused=igb_uio 0000:06:00.1 'I350 Gigabit Network Connection' if=eth4 drv=igb unused=igb_uio 0000:06:00.2 'I350 Gigabit Network Connection' if=eth5 drv=igb unused=igb_uio 0000:06:00.3 'I350 Gigabit Network Connection' if=eth6 drv=igb unused=igb_uio LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../lib ./testpmd -c 0xF -n 4 -w 0000:04:00.0 0000:04:00.1 -- -i --portmask=0x1 --nb-cores=2 EAL: Detected 32 lcore(s) EAL: No free hugepages reported in hugepages-2048kB EAL: Probing VFIO support...
