I'm not sure about that since as I mentioned before I haven't tried it before,
so give it a try and let me know if it worked for you.

Kindest regards,

I found this librte-pmd-mlx4 driver but it's for 18.02 and I have dpdk
17.11.1 installed.

It contains files:
./lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dpdk-18.02-drivers/librte_pmd_mlx4.so.18.02
./lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librte_pmd_mlx4.so.18.02

I assume I can compile librte-pmd-mlx4 manually for 17.11 instead and place it 
in that folder.
It looks like this:

$ls -l /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dpdk-17.11-drivers/ | head -n 5 total 0 
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 Mar 22 10:23 librte_mempool_octeontx.so.17.11
-> ../librte_mempool_octeontx.so.17.11
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Mar 22 10:23 librte_mempool_ring.so.17.11 ->
../librte_mempool_ring.so.17.11
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Mar 22 10:23 librte_mempool_stack.so.17.11 ->
../librte_mempool_stack.so.17.11
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 32 Mar 22 10:23 librte_pmd_af_packet.so.17.11 ->
../librte_pmd_af_packet.so.17.11
...

Would that be enough or is there anything else I need?
Best regards
