Re: [dpdk-users] pdump help

Hi,

Something is still creating the problem. just can't figure out.

Here is the scenario....
Just inserted IGB UIO module, attached one 10G NIC to DPDK &
4096 hugepage.

---
trying to run l3fwd as primary and pducp as secondary  to capture packet
dump.
Earlier dpdk_pdump is crashing on either create_mp_ring_vdev:649 or
create_mp_ring_vdev:669.

Now i changed some parameters of pdump and l3fwd, change hugepages to 8192
and tried to run like this..
*./l3fwd -c 606 -n 4 --proc-type=primary  --socket-mem=1024 --file-prefix
l3f -- -p 0x1 --config="(0,0,1),(0,1,2)"*

Here is the log of app
"

It seems everything is good in this. So I tried to run pdump like


* ./dpdk_pdump -- --pdump
'port=0,queue=*,rx-dev=/tmp/rx-file.pcap,tx-dev=/tmp/tx-file.pcap,ring-size=1024,mbuf-size=20,total-num-mbufs=1025'*
Here is log for pdump

"

"

It seems from log that their is some issue in memory between primary and
secondary, but when i tried to run one l2fwd as primary and one l3fwd as
secondary it works fine.
