Hi Raghav, After running /etc/init.d/openibd restart you don?t need to load the modules, they are loaded by the openibd script. Can you try to run : /etc/init.d/openibd stop Verify that modules are not loaded /etc/init.d/openib start
If it won?t help: What Mellanox NIC do you have on the ?problematic? machine? What command line do you use to run the application? Please send output of: 1. ?lspci | grep Mellanox? 2. ibdev2netdev 3. ldd <your application> 4. lsmod Thanks Olga From: Raghav Sethi [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, April 04, 2015 11:54 PM To: Olga Shern; Adrien Mazarguil; dev at dpdk.org; Xiaozhou Li Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: update mlx4 usage and dependencies Hi Olga, Thanks for your reply. OFED version was 2.4-1.0.4 for ubuntu14.04-x86_64 I tried both variants: - Compiling with dynamic linking against OFED libraries - Compiling with static linking against dpdk.org<http://dpdk.org> libraries Both have the same issue.

You can compile it dynamically with the libibverbs that are coming with Mellanox_OFED 2.4 2. To get better performance: compile it statically with libibverbs and libmlx4 that can be downloaded from http://dpdk.org/download, the README inside librte_pmd_mlx4 explains how to do it If you compile the pmd statically then MLNX_OFED is needed only for kernel modules.

Works like a charm. Still getting the issue on the old machine (also upgraded to 2.0.0 FWIW).
