Subject: [dpdk-dev] Kni interface unable to receive ipv6 solicited node multicast addressed frames
Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2020 22:56:14 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAEbeQ+r36eiV7qWRSWbAQFGzyd7noRUf0cw7N+vh=H5aFU1tNg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,
   I observed that DPDK kni interface is not able to receive solicited
node multicast addressed (derived from the IPv6 address configured on
vEth0 interface) when the kni sample app is being run in Ubuntu VM on
ESXI server. The only way to have the frames reach the kni interface
is by setting the promiscuous mode in dvSwitch. However regular kernel
interface with IPv6 address on the same vmxnet3 port works fine
without having to set promiscuous mode in the dvSwitch. Has anyone
seen this issue before? Any suggestions to have kni interface working
with ipv6 addresses in non promiscuous mode of dvSwitch.

Ubuntu version used  = Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS
DPDK version: 18.08.1
VMware ESXI 6.5.0

sudo /tmp/kni -l 6-7  -- -P -p 0x1 --config="(0,6,7)"

Thanks,
Srini
