Hope it's the right way to ask DPDK questions. I am new to DPDK world and
got an error while setting up dpdk on my server. any idea about where I
should look at?


   1. Error: rte_eal port num [0] is not match the pciidlist [4]
   2. EAL: Error - exiting with code: 1
   3.   Cause: Generate core list error

Your DPDK is built for only 32 CPU's and you have a machine with 128.
Change your config and move on to the next issue.

* There are patches in review to avoid this in future versions of DPDK.

Really appreciate your help. Two follow-ups:
- it actually works on 48 cores server and do you know why?  (The problem
server is 96 cores)
- which part in config I need to change? (Sorry I am a noob) . Also, I am
using pre-built RPM to install dpdk, do I have to rebuild the RPM on 96
cores server in order to run it on the 96 cores server?

I think Stephen might mean your pre-build DPDK might not be built with 32 
cores, I am not familiar with this neither, but I here is my grep search:

/usr/src/dpdk# egrep  'CORE|CPU' x86_64-native-linux-gcc/.config

CONFIG_RTE_MAX_LCORE=128
# Recognize/ignore architecture we compile for. AVX/AVX512 CPU flags for 
performance/power testing.
CONFIG_RTE_MAX_LCORE_FREQS=64
CONFIG_RTE_TEST_PMD_RECORD_CORE_CYCLES=n

I guess your pre-built DPDK might have CONFIG_RTE_MAX_LCORE built less 
than 96, you can either rebuilt your DPDK RPM package or rebuild from DPDK 
source with cores >= 96, say 128

Thanks for reply.
BTW I guess "CONFIG_RTE_MAX_LCORE=128" means no more than 128 cores.  But
what does "CONFIG_RTE_MAX_LCORE_FREQS=64" mean?

right, CONFIG_RTE_MAX_LCORE_FREQS=64 is irrelevant here I think, something 
relate to power.

# Compile librte_power
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_POWER=y
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_POWER_DEBUG=n
CONFIG_RTE_MAX_LCORE_FREQS=64

By the way, I think the patches Stephen talked about to remove 
RTE_MAX_LCORE constrains  is this:

Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/4] Extend --lcores to run on cores > RTE_MAX_LCORE
