Hello ,

I ve an enviroment as above.

I try to run DPDK app that is already can run i40e driver with Intel XL710 or X700 NIC but not on e810-C

When DPDK-app is on run , KNI is allocated but there is not any KNI interface on server. I try to open debug and trace logs so try to understand what is going on. So eal-> debug ,somehow, is activated but not for KNI? I need to understand why KNI is not working

Compile flags with meson

Step 1. meson -Denable_kmods=true -Dbuildtype=debug -Denable_trace_fp=true dpdk-stable-20.11.3
     2. ninja
     3. ninja install
     4. ldconfig
