Hi Avi, Can you please explain what you are trying to do? Are you trying to test latest DPDK with OVS 2.8.1? OVS 2.8.1 supports DPDK 17.05.1 , and as far as I know, it also working with DPDK 17.08 DPDK 17.11 is supported with OVS 2.9.
If you want help regarding DPDK you should send emails to the us...@dpdk.org Now, regarding what I stated before, you need to follow procedure from DPDK.org for mlx PMDs : For 17.08: http://dpdk.org/doc/guides-17.08/nics/mlx5.html , Please go to section 20.7. Quick Start Guide and check section 20.5. Prerequisites MLNX_OFED 4.1 ./mlnxofedinstall For 17.11: http://dpdk.org/doc/guides-17.11/nics/mlx5.html , please go to section 21.7 (Quick Start Guide on OFED) and check section 21.5.1.2. Mellanox OFED for the right MLNX_OFED to use MLNX_OFED 4.2 ./mlnxofedinstall --upstream-libs --dpdk Etc ...
