Downloaded the latest vmxnet3-usermap package (ver 1.2) from dpdk.org, tried
compiling it under an Ubuntu VM but it fails to compile, is there a newer
version of this driver available from somewhere that will compile correctly
under Ubuntu 15.04 ?
The kernel (Ubuntu 15.04) "uname -a" ===> Linux ubuntu-vm-mansoor
3.19.0-15-generic #15-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 16 23:32:37 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64
x86_64 GNU/Linux
First I got an error about undefined VM_RESERVED, which I fixed by setting to
(VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP) to get past the error, now I get following
compile errors, have followed the instructions inside the
"vmxnet3-usermap-1.2/kmod/README" file.
Also noticed the message "Using 2.6.x kernel build system", have setup the RTE
environment variables as below:
# env | grep
RTERTE_INCLUDE=/home/mansoor/dpdk_download/dpdk_2.1/dpdk-2.1.0/build/includeRTE_SDK=/home/mansoor/dpdk_download/dpdk_2.1/dpdk-2.1.0RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
Thanks in advance for your help.
