[dpdk-users] mlx5 fails to probe on 16.11.5

[Richard Nutman]

Hi Olga,

Yes I am building the mlx5 PMD. I'll debug more to see why it doesn't find it. It looks like something todo with the vendor ID's not matching, or something around that area.
I haven't changed my build system or which libraries I'm including between the Mellanox 16.11.4 release and the official DPDK 16.11.5.

I searched for the MLX5_RSS_HF_MASK in the whole 16.11.5 release but couldn't find it.  Commented it out to get it building for the moment, I'm not using RSS anyway.
I presume it's either missed out or in some OFED/IB system headers I do not have ?

Ofed 4.2 installed with just --dpdk option.

Many thanks,
Richard.
