Hi,

I am new to dpdk.
I built the dpdk-1.6.0r1 and even was able to compile the apps.
Then I am trying to bind my NIC to the dpdk application:
#modprobe uio
#
#insmod x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc/kmod/igb_uio.ko
#
# ./tools/pci_unbind.py --status

# ./tools/pci_unbind.py --bind=igb_uio 05:0d.0
Error: bind failed for 0000:05:0d.0 - Cannot bind to driver igb_uio
(/sys/bus/pci/drivers/igb_uio/bind)
Error: unbind failed for 0000:05:0d.0 - Cannot open
/sys/bus/pci/drivers//unbind
#

unlike previous cases I went over in this forum, this NIC supposed to be
supported (or maybe i read it incorrectly???):

# cat lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_pci_dev_ids.h | grep 82541GI
#define E1000_DEV_ID_82541GI                  0x1076
#define E1000_DEV_ID_82541GI_LF               0x107C
#define E1000_DEV_ID_82541GI_MOBILE           0x1077

my machine data (i am not using any visualization at the moment):
# uname -a
Linux helmut 3.11.0-18-generic #32-Ubuntu SMP Tue Feb 18 21:11:14 UTC 2014
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux


any idea why the unbind failes?


Thanks!
