[dpdk-dev] hardware neutral driver for DPDK

Hey there- I'm interested in doing some work on the DPDK, specifically in creating a driver backend that interfaces to the kernel using AF_PACKET rather than a specific card for which a UIO or VFIO driver is available in kernel. I think it would be nice for the DPDK to have a hardware agno

Hello David Good point - I only compiled it on RHEL 6.4. If you remove the typedefs it should compile on the later kernel thanks Patrick

Hi, Some further update on the crash I am facing. I am using DPDK1.6.0r1 and take over the vmxnet3 with igb_uio and then start the application. (so no external ko or vmxnet usermap etc.) During the port initializations, the crash is happening in the following function - eth_vmxnet3_dev_init an

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] pcap: revert build patches

This reverts commit a0cdfcf936bcccd15d08a22c9cf38013b6859ad2, ef5b2363627dadacfee7da6ee0c7d1c2b40a30db and 60191b8919ef630a0fd50c32a734dd04802ccbfc . These patches are creating more problems than solving the initial one (which was a build error with too old pcap libraries). Since old pcap librabri

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] pcap: Remove check for pcap_sendpacket

From: Mats Liljegren Current test relies on the fact that pcap_sendpacket is a macro. Since it is a function, the test fails, causing loss of sending ability when using pcap. Signed-off-by: Mats Liljegren --- lib/librte_pmd_pcap/rte_eth_pcap.h |4 1 file changed, 4 deletions(-) diff
