Re: [dpdk-users] [DPDK-PDUMP] Issue: RING: Cannot reserve memory

["RAJESH KUMAR S.R" <rajuuu1992@gmail.com>]

Hi Rami,

Thanks for the response.

DPDK version I'm using is 18.02.0.
The primary process I'm using is custom program which uses dpdk.
I have initialized pdump in the primary process using
"rte_pdump_init(NULL)" similar to that in testpmd example.

I'm using the pdump tool without making any changes.

I enabled the following flags
1. CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PDUMP=y
2. CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_PCAP=y
I added the libpcap library

The problem I'm facing is bit different from what I mentioned earlier.

The first time when I run, I'm able to see the packets getting saved in the
output pcap file, rx.pcap and tx.pcap.

The second time when I run, I'm getting a segmentation fault as I have
pasted the output in the previous message.
I'm using gdb for debugging, the functions rte_eal_init(),
create_mp_ring_vdev();
        enable_pdump();  are working fine.


The segmentation fault is occuring in rte_eth_tx_burst
function(dump_packets ->pdump_rxtx-->rte_eth_tx_burst)
The rings tx_ring_0 and rx_ring_0 are not getting freed. I checked that
with rte_memzone_dump().  So, next time when I start the pdump tool I was
getting " memzone <RG_rx_ring_0> already exists .  RING: Cannot reserve
memory" error.
So, issue is in rte_eth_tx_burst function, where the
"dev->data->tx_queues[queue_id]" is NULL.

I don't know why tx_queues is NULL.
I'm currently checking where that is getting populated.
