Martin,

AFAIK, QLogic NICs have not been tested with VPP.

You need to start by adding a case for the QLogic NICs in .../vpp/vnet/vnet/devices/dpdk/init.c::dpdk_bind_devices_to_uio(). Search for "Unsupported Ethernet PCI device" in this file for details.

A quick internet search for a DPDK QLogic PMD shows the following documentation for 17.02-rc3:
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/nics/bnx2x.html

I'm not sure if this PMD exists in DPDK 16.11 which is what VPP is currently being tested against, but hopefully it will just work.

Thanks,

I’ve just found that VPP has problem with QLogic interface.

Any idea if it is problem of VPP or DPDK?

Is it something what can be easy fixed?

I am thinking to try different version of NIC firmware..

*Subject:* VPP cannot find interface QLogic 57810

Hello,

I have a problem that VPP cannot find QLogic 57810 interface.

I use Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and VPP 17.01 which was installed like this:

|echo "deb [trusted=yes]||https://nexus.fd.io/content/repositories/fd.io.ubuntu.xenial.main/||./" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/99fd.io.list|

|sudo apt update|

|sudo apt install vpp vpp-lib vpp-dpdk-dkms|

I have 2 QLogic interfaces on a server and I want to put interface “eno2” into VPP.

Here are some outputs:

I also tried to add this into /etc/vpp/startup.conf

dpdk {

}

and it did not change anything.

No errors in /tmp/vpp.log

Any idea?

Thank you,

Martin Šuňal
