Hi,
We are using qemu for loading our VM with an e1000 driver for the VM
interface.
we noticed that our rate is limited to 10Mbps.
I am currently attempting to move to virtio driver using dpdk release 2.0.
>From the documentation it seems that I have to load my dpdk application
with librte_pmd_virtio.so.
1) The Makefile under lib/librte_pmd_virtio creates a static library. do I
have to write another Makefile for shared object?
2) there is a known bug regarding application taking control of the kernel
managed virtio device, and it seems that there is a patch for this bug only
for release 16.04 - is that correct? is there a patch for release 2.0 as
well?
http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/12462/
3) I tried to run my application with the librte_pmd_virtio.so which I
compiled but the application fails to load the interfaces. is it a known
issue in release 2.0?
thanks.
