Hi,

I am using SR-IOV and pass through to run a DPDK app. I am running it on
host. SR-IOV should split the NIC into multiple Vfs. I have split each NIC
into 2 Vfs. However, when I run the DPDK app, I get error initializing the
port no.2 of DPDK.
I am running the app with these options:
--rx "(0,0,0,1),(1,0,2,1), (2,0,3,1), (3,0,4,1)" --tx "(0,1), (1,1),
(2,1), (3,1)"

This is for 2 physical NICs, each having 2 Vfs. The error I get is:

Initializing NIC port 0 ...                                    |
|RPIOIF DETACHED   
|Initializing NIC port 0 RX queue 0 ...                         |
|

|Initializing NIC port 1 RX queue 0 ...                         |

|                  
|Initializing NIC port 2 ...                                    |
|                  
|PANIC in app_init_nics():                                      |

|Cannot init NIC port 2 (-22)


Can someone pls clarify how DPDK views it's port nos, i.e. Scans the
devices and sees each nic? I see 4 /dev/uioX devices. I assume it scans
for these igb_uio devices. These are present. Then why can it not detect
the other 2 NICs?

Thanks
Anjali

The 4 devices in qs are at 04:10.0, 04:10.1, 04:10.2, 04:10.3
