Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] eal: don't advertise a physical address when no hugepages
Date: Mon,  3 Jul 2017 12:04:07 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170703100407.21790-1-olivier.matz@6wind.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170609082937.21294-1-olivier.matz@6wind.com>

When populating a mempool with a virtual memory area, the mempool
library expects to be able to get the physical address of each page.

When started with --no-huge, the physical addresses may not be available
because the pages are not locked in memory. It sometimes returns
RTE_BAD_PHYS_ADDR, which makes the mempool_populate() function to fail.

This was working before the commit cdc242f260e7 ("eal/linux: support
running as unprivileged user"), because rte_mem_virt2phy() was returning
0 instead of RTE_BAD_PHYS_ADDR, which was seen as a valid physical
address.

Since --no-huge is a debug function that breaks the support of physical
drivers, always set physical addresses to RTE_BAD_PHYS_ADDR in memzones
or in rte_mem_virt2phy(), and ensure that mempool won't complain in that
case.

Fixes: cdc242f260e7 ("eal/linux: support running as unprivileged user")

v1 -> v2:
- initialize memory segments (rte_memseg) with RTE_BAD_PHYS_ADDR
  if started with --no-huge
- return RTE_BAD_PHYS_ADDR when rte_malloc_virt2phy() if the
  memory segment has no physical address
- drop change in eal_common_memzone.c: the physical address is
  now set to RTE_BAD_PHYS_ADDR as per return value of
  rte_malloc_virt2phy()
