[dpdk-users] Fwd: rte_mempool_create( ) fails at rte_mempool_set_ops_byname () for name ring_mp_mc

[Monika Mails <mails.monika@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I am running DPDK version 18.05

While running the binaries I see DPDK is failing in initialization, I
checked after putting some logs and found that it is failing at
API  *rte_mempool_set_ops_byname* () when it tries to read and compare
rte_mempool_ops_table, highlighted below.


/* sets mempool ops previously registered by rte_mempool_register_ops. */
int
rte_mempool_set_ops_byname(struct rte_mempool *mp, const char *name,
        void *pool_config)
{
        struct rte_mempool_ops *ops = NULL;
        unsigned i;
           /* too late, the mempool is already populated.
*/rte_mempool_ops_table
        if (mp->flags & MEMPOOL_F_POOL_CREATED)
                return -EEXIST;







*       for (i = 0; i < rte_mempool_ops_table.num_ops; i++)
{                if (!strcmp(name,
rte_mempool_ops_table.ops[i].name)) {                        ops =
&rte_mempool_ops_table.ops[i];                        break;
}        }*

        if (ops == NULL)
                return -EINVAL;
        mp->ops_index = i;
        mp->pool_config = pool_config;
        return 0;
}

Can someone from Dev team please explain what is wrong here , why
*rte_mempool_ops_table* is not initialized before using it.

Here are the logs for DPDK run :-
