Yes. Please refer below output:-
********************************************************************
Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
============================================
0000:00:04.0 '82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller' drv=igb_uio unused=
0000:00:05.0 '82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller' drv=igb_uio unused=
Network devices using kernel driver
===================================
0000:00:03.0 'Virtio network device' if= drv=virtio-pci unused=igb_uio
Other network devices
=====================
<none>
********************************************************************
However, when i start the DPDK application, i am getting the error log as
indicated in earlier mail.
The difference with DPDK 1.6.1 is that at the same stage IGB_UIO has
already bound the assigned devices without having to explicitly run the
"dpdk_nic_bind.py". Please find below the application log when run with
DPDK 1.6.0:-
********************************************************************
Network devices using DPDK-compatible driver
============================================
0000:00:04.0 '82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller' drv=igb_uio unused=
0000:00:08.0 '82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller' drv=igb_uio unused=
Network devices using kernel driver
===================================
0000:00:03.0 'Virtio network device' if= drv=virtio-pci unused=igb_uio
Other network devices
=====================
<none>
********************************************************************
Kindly note that in both cases, logs have been taken after loading IGB_UIO
prior to starting DPDK application.
