[dpdk-dev] Crash related to virtio NICs in DPDK 2.0.0 on Freebsd 10.1 VM

["Raz Amir" <razamir22@gmail.com>]

I am moving from dpdk 1.7.1 to 2.0.0 and I am experiencing a crash in any
dpdk application, when rte_eal_init initializes the virtio NICs.

I have Ubuntu 14.04.02, running a Freebsd 10.1 VM with 3 virtio NICs over
qemu with kvm.

I run testpmd (for example) inside the Freebsd VM and it crashes (more info
below).

On the same setup, testpmd from dpdk 1.7.1 works without an issue.

Can you tell if you know that a Freebsd VM with virtio NICs is working for
dpdk 2.0.0?
