Re: [dpdk-users] Cannot run DPDK applications using Mellanox NIC under Hyper-V

[Liwu Liu <liwuliu@fortinet.com>]

Hi Olga,

   We target at Azure though we use a local Windows Server for better debugging purpose.
   I tested on Ubuntu 18@Azure with SRIOV. It seems to be the case doing "ethtool -U" to attach flow also fails due to same reasone (error 12 out of memory).
   Many thanks,
Liwu

HI Liwu, 

Are you running your application on Azure VMs?

Thanks,
Olga

Hi Team,

    We used to have similar problem for Ubuntu 18.04 hypervisor and resolved by set log_num_mgm_entry_size=-1. (Refer to https://emea01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmails.dpdk.org%2Farchives%2Fusers%2F2018-November%2F003647.html&amp;data=02%7C01%7Colgas%40mellanox.com%7C0f967c6706714e2e992008d67294013a%7Ca652971c7d2e4d9ba6a4d149256f461b%7C0%7C1%7C636822377359958550&amp;sdata=AsxbxqWhKsGgMAMulz92p6SXzfPR%2FCxebrJ88fMO%2B5k%3D&amp;reserved=0
)

  Somehow for Windows Servers with MLNX VPI, I do not know where to set such and DPDK over MLX4 on linux vm has same failure of attaching flow.

    [  374.568992] <mlx4_ib> __mlx4_ib_create_flow: mcg table is full. Fail to register network rule. size = 64 (out of memory error code)

    Would like to get your help on this. It seems to be the case that the PF interface is not configured to trust VF interfaces to be able to add new flow rules.

   Many thanks for help,

Liwu
