[dpdk-dev] Permanently binding NIC ports with DPDK drivers

[Montorsi, Francesco]

Hi,
Is there a way to permanently (i.e., have the configuration automatically 
applied after reboot) bind a NIC port to DPDK?

In case there's none, I'm thinking to save in my software a list of the NIC 
ports chosen by the user for use with DPDK and then, upon software startup to 
just do
    for (int i=0; i < ...; i++)
     system("dpdk_nic_bind.py --bind=igb_uio " + PCI_device_chosen[i]);
Do you see any problem with that? 

Thanks!
