Hi Xing/Wu,
I am using dpdk 17.11.2 and i40e kernel driver 2.4.6, and I see
all multocast packets are not reaching the VF. Do we support/tested i40evf pmd
for v6 support ? Can you please let me know what we need to do extra to make v6
work with i40evf pmd. V4 works fine. I also h
Hi Ruinan,
In that case, do we say that v6 will not work at all i40evf pmd
till trust mode is on ? Yes I do agree that I am able to see the error in the
dmesg on the host
“kernel: i40e :83:00.3: Unprivileged VF 1 is attempting to configure
promiscuous mode” , when trust mode
When you set the allmulticast or promiscuous from dpdk, host rejects the
request if trust bit it off. You can see the error message from dmesg. I don’t
know why your kernel i40evf works.

Moreover I wanted to mention one more thing, that the issue of multicast
packets not working is only with DPDK 140eVF PMD. In case I use the i40evf of
the kernel then it is working fine and I don’t see any issues with v6. So why
is the trust mode a requirement for DPDK pmd ?

No the trust mode is off currently on the host. I can try with trust mode on
too. But I have a doubt, is trust mode mandatory to be turned on to make the VF
receive v6 multicast packets ? if yes then how will this work in openstack
(i40e VF dpdk) with v6 ?

Hi,
Did you enable trust mode on vf? If trust is off on host, promiscuous can’t
enabled from vm.
