Hi Stephen, Thanks for your reply, I was not aware of that.

I am using 4-Port Intel 10Gigbit network card-> X710 for 10GbE, and this is
currently bound to DPDK using VFIO-PCI driver, but the corresponding
kernel network driver appears to be-> i40e.

Currently I dont see shared libraries built under DPDK's->
build/driver/net/i40e directory.

Should I build those driver libraries, and then provide path to it,
something like this in EAL param -> -d build/drivers/net/i40e/libi40e.so

Please let me know.

Thanks,

Sudha
Regards,

Sudha
