Hi, Just want to summarize the steps of running VPP with Mellanox NICs as below.
1. download and install Mellanox ofed driver. https://www.mellanox.com/products/infiniband-drivers/linux/mlnx_ofed sudo ./mlnxofedinstall --upstream-libs --dpdk --add-kernel-support sudo /etc/init.d/openibd restart 2. install libmnl.so library sudo apt-get install libmnl-dev -y 3. put Mellanox NIC address into startup.conf login@vpp-tx2-02:~/origin$ cat ~/startup.conf | grep dev dev 0000:0b:00.0 dev 0000:0b:00.1 login@vpp-tx2-02:~/origin$ sudo lshw -c network -businfo Bus info Device Class Description ==================================================== pci@0000:0b:00.0 enp11s0f0 network MT27800 Family [ConnectX-5] pci@0000:0b:00.1 enp11s0f1 network MT27800 Family [ConnectX-5] 4. compile and run vpp image with Mellanox NIC. make build vpp_uses_dpdk_mlx5_pmd=yes vpp_uses_dpdk_ibverbs_link_dlopen=yes sudo LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/login/origin/build-root/install-vpp_debug-native/external/lib/ ./build-root/build-vpp_debug-native/vpp/bin/vpp -c ~/startup.conf Thanks. > -----Original Message----- > From: vpp-dev@lists.fd.io <vpp-dev@lists.fd.io> On Behalf Of Benoit Ganne > (bganne) via Lists.Fd.Io > Sent: 2019年6月20日 19:42 > To: amito...@gmail.com; vpp-dev@lists.fd.io > Cc: vpp-dev@lists.fd.io > Subject: Re: [vpp-dev] Mellanox interfaces not getting detected with vpp19.04 > > Not sure what is going on, however I noticed you are trying to use VF and not > PF.
