[dpdk-dev] DPDK support for Intel 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller

[dpdk-dev] DPDK support for Intel 82546EB Gigabit Ethernet Controller

[ankit kumar]

HI,

        Recently i was trying to work with intel DPDK but when i tried
with test example as "l2fwd" it shows as “No Ethernet ports – bye”.

i have 4 NICs.

#lspci |grep "Ethernet"

00:19.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82562V-2 10/100 Network
Connection (rev 02)
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82546EB Gigabit
Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 03)
02:00.1 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82546EB Gigabit
Ethernet Controller (Copper) (rev 03)
02:01.0 Ethernet controller: D-Link System Inc DGE-528T Gigabit
Ethernet Adapter (rev 10)

    What may be the reason? is it due to NIC as "Intel 82546EB Gigabit
Ethernet Controller" or anything else.

    Please suggest.

Thanks and Best Regards
Ankit Kumar

Check the support of your NICs with this page:
	http://www.dpdk.org/doc/nics

Your NICs are not supported.
Patches are welcomed.

Hi Ankit Kumar,

It looks your NIC is not supported by Intel DPDK.
You can have a view on "RTE_SDK/lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_pci_dev_ids.h
This file shows which device was supported in Intel DPDK. :)

we can see that Intel 82562 and Intel 82546 were not supported in DPDK r1.2.3
Maybe it will supported in future version.

Thanks
Best Regards
Jia Sui
