Hi Lee, In following link you said about BIOS settings to eliminate RMRRs. http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-March/015504.html 2) If your application requires the IOMMU, there are BIOS parameters that can be configured to eliminate the RMRRs on a slot-by-slot basis. (I will send instructions for this separately, since it is not a DPDK issue.) Please send the details for the above configuration. PFA screen shot for the Gen8 server version details. Thanks in advance. -----Original Message----- From: Gonzalez Monroy, Sergio [mailto:sergio.gonzalez.monroy@intel.com] Sent: Friday, July 24, 2015 2:47 PM To: Rapelly, Varun Cc: dev@dpdk.org Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] iommu Error on DL380 G8 with RHEL 7.1 On 24/07/2015 09:54, Rapelly, Varun wrote: > Hi All, > > I'm not able to send packets through OVS bridge [with dpdk] when iommu is enabled on HP DL380 G8 [RHEL 7.1].

You need to contact HP for a solution to your issues as suggested in the following thread by Lee A. Roberts from HP: http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-March/015504.html Sergio
