Hi Gurus, I'm trying to bring VM under Amzaon EC2 R4.16xlarge instance, so the ethernet device is uising Amazon ENA driver. The kernel is 3.10, dpdk is 18.02. All ether device are bound successfully, but for some reason, the DPDK data path cannot be initialized because rte_eth_dev_count() always returns zero. Can someone shed some lights? Thanks.
I'm pretty sure the VM instance is set up correctly in terms ENA enabled. Below are some details: # modinfo ena filename: /lib/modules/3.10.0-693.11.6.el7.228052.x86_64/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/amazon/ena/ena.ko.xz version: 1.0.2 license: GPL description: Elastic Network Adapter (ENA) author: Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates rhelversion: 7.4 # lspci -vt -[0000:00]-+-00.0 Intel Corporation 440FX - 82441FX PMC [Natoma] +-01.0 Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 ISA [Natoma/Triton II] +-01.1 Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 IDE [Natoma/Triton II] +-01.3 Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI +-02.0 Cirrus Logic GD 5446 +-03.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 +-04.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 +-05.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 +-06.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 +-07.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 +-08.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 +-09.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 +-0a.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 +-0b.0 Device 1d0f:ec20 \-1f.0 XenSource, Inc.
