You need to install Mellanox OFED before attempting to compile the mlx4
PMD, as described in the relevant documentation (doc/guides/nics/mlx4.rst)
also available here:

 http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/nics/mlx4.html

See "Prerequisites" and "Getting Mellanox OFED" sections.

It should work fine with all Linux distributions supported by Mellanox
OFED. In your specific case, RHEL 6.5 is supported by MOFED 3.0-2.0.1.
