Hi VPP Team, I am trying to interface docker containers to VPP through an vhost-user device.
The page here ( https://wiki.fd.io/view/VPP/Use_VPP_to_connect_VMs_Using_Vhost-User_Interface) explains how to do it for VMs. Is there any page that explains it for docker containers ? As explained in the above page, I have setup the vhost-user interfaces in VPP. I am getting a problem when I try to pass the vhost information to the docker container. vpp# show vhost-user Virtio vhost-user interfaces .. Interface: VirtualEthernet0/0/0 (ifindex 1) virtio_net_hdr_sz 0 ... Interface: VirtualEthernet0/0/1 (ifindex 2) virtio_net_hdr_sz 0 .. shiv@shiv-lenovo-v310:~/work/docker$ docker run -it -v /tmp/sock1.sock:/tmp/sock1.sock -v /mnt/huge_vhost/:/mnt/huge_vhost dpdk_app_l2fwd l2fwd -c 0x4 -n 4 -m 1024 --no-pci --vdev=virtio-user0,path=/tmp/sock1.sock -- -p 0x1 EAL: Detected 4 lcore(s) EAL: No free hugepages reported in hugepages-1048576kB EAL: Cannot obtain physical addresses: Success. Only vfio will function. EAL: Failed to get current mempolicy: Operation not permitted. Assuming MPOL_DEFAULT. ERROR: failed to parse device "virtio-user0" EAL: Unable to parse device 'virtio-user0,path=/tmp/sock1.sock' EAL: Error - exiting with code: 1 Cause: Invalid EAL arguments Basically, how do we pass virtio-user devices to container app ? Is there any way to check if the virtio-user devices are available in the kernel ? Regards, Shiv
