The VMs are communicating using SR-IOV (per VM 1 VF is assigned). We thought of running the test_pmd_perf to test the number of cycles taken for RX/TX. But we are unable to get it working. Even if we assign 4 VCPUs to the VM the app says "*no avail lcore to test*." The command we are using are: cd dpdk16.04/app/test ./build/app/test -c f -- -p 1 RTE>> pmd_perf_autotest On searching we found that it might be an issue with our VMs using SRIOV. Please guide us on this. Thanks, Priyanka
