Hello,

In 21.11, we work with meson/ninja for compilation/linkage.

Do you use it when you compile testpmd?

Have you tried using it with your application?

Regards,

Asaf Penso

Subject: dpdk21.11 error: No probed ethernet devices OR Unable to parse device '0000:0b:00.0'

Dear Madam/Sir：

     I am new to DPDK and have some  problems with 'No probed ethernet devices' and 'Unable to parse device '0000:0b:00.0''

     The environment is ：

     cpu:                     Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6254 CPU @ 3.10GHz

     system:               VM EXSI7.02u + centos7.7

     linux kernel：      4.19.237

     DPDK version:    dpdk-21.11

     network card：  mellanox connextX-5 MCX512A

     drive:   MLNX_OFED_LINUX-5.5-1.0.3.2-rhel7.7-x86_64

     network config：both The pass-through and SR_IOV

          When I run my own DPDK program which was upgraded from DPDK version 19.08 to 21.11，eal init reported error ：'No probed ethernet devices’ ，or  'Unable to parse device '0000:0b:00.0'' When I set up ‘-a  0000:0b:00.0’ 

          But when I run app/dpdk-testpmd， there is no problem whether I set '-a 0b:00.0' or not。

           I compared the two programs，There is no difference before rte_eal_init() in main(). The parameters passed to DPDK are also consistent.

           I query to that driver is mlx5_core.  

           My user program uses Makefile with：

                                                  PKGCONF = pkg-config

                                                  CFLAGS += -O2 $(shell $(PKGCONF) --cflags --static libdpdk)

                                                  LDFLAGS += $(shell $(PKGCONF) --libs --static  libdpdk)

How should this problem be solved？

Is there any additional configuration for the DPDK user program before running the main() function? Or maybe my compilation method doesn't meet the requirements for the MLX5 driver？
