Working with dpdk-1.2.3r4. I was running the l2fwd-vf application using virtual box. I got the following error. “Cause: No Ethernet port – bye” Request your help in understanding the error and resolution.

Is virtual box emulating a VF device ? This example application initialize 3 drivers: igb, ixgbe, ixgbevf. Please check the device support of your hypervisor (virtual box here). You can also check the supported drivers of DPDK-1.3 in this page: http://dpdk.org/doc/nics About the form of your email: - Please do not use HTML when posting to this mailing-list. - Your email CANNOT be confidential so do not put this ugly signature (twice) Just look how your email is ugly when archived: http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2013-July/000367.html -- Thomas ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

I got the vf to work in virtual machine, but I can not receive any packets from hypervisor. I expected to receive packets from both hypervisor and vm based on l2 switching in NIC. My suspicion is that I may not configure the physical function correctly in hypervisor? (I do not see any difference between having vf and not having vf except for delivering kernel commands for mmu and pci realloc). In summary, I want to receive packets both in VM (via VF) and in hypervisor (via PF). Can you guide me for this? Thank you, Jinho ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
