Do you have LD_LIBRARY_PATH exported so that the DPDK can find the librte_pmd_mlx[45]_glue.so.* library? Eg. from the the vpp build path: ~# ls $PWD/build-root/install-vpp-native/external/lib/*glue* ./build-root/install-vpp-native/external/lib/librte_pmd_mlx4_glue.so.18.02.0 ./build-root/install-vpp-native/external/lib/librte_pmd_mlx5_glue.so.19.08.0 ~# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PWD/build-root/install-vpp-native/external/lib This is necessary for the MLX DPDK PMD. > I noticed in your config file above that it says DPDK_VERSION ?= 19.08 Yes, I am using master - but VPP build will use the right DPDK version automatically, I do not expect different results. > Also, could you please share the dpdk section of your VPP startup.conf?
