Dear all,
I am running GNURadio 3.8.1 with UHD3.15 LTS on an Ubuntu 18.04 machine with 16
cores (Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6144 CPU @ 3.50GHz) and a 10GigBit Ethernet card
(DPDK enabled).
The output of the benchmark_rate test is:

This test is done with the default FPGA image for the N310 with XG. So far
everything seems to be good!
Now for the application I am running I used the uhd_image_builder to generate a
FPGA image with a DDCs and DUCs and moreover I included also a FFT.
The flowgraph consists basically of a file source, a fft and a duc (both on the
fpga) and the radio (usrp n310) itself.
However, when I execute the flow-graph already with privileged rights (chrt -f
99 python3 flowgraph.py) I run into under-runs and moreover I get the following
error "USER2: Invalid reason associated with wait request".
When I reduce the sampling rate obviously the under-runs disappear but the
second error message still pops up after a time and also the LED on the front
panel of the USRP goes off.
What do you think is the reason for this? Running the same flow-graph on a
different workstation works fine. Could some issue with the network cards be
the problem?
Any help is appreciated!
Best regards,
Anton
