hi,all
I'm trying to install dpdk on virtual machine. Does the hypervisior must be "KVM" or "ESXi 5.0" ? I use ESX 4.1 instead, and encounter some problems:
According to the document "vmxnet3-usermap" on the official website, I can't find the "vmx3" folder, and after “make”, I can't find the "vmxnet3-usermap.ko" in "kmod" subdirectory.
My dpdk version is :dpdk-1.3.1r2.
I can install dpdk and run "testpmd" successfully, but after I input "testpmd > start tx_first" , the network connection (between my pc and the pc installed ESX 4.1) interrupted. How could this happen?
Another question: there are two ports on my virtual machine, after I insmod igb_uio.ko ,they both can't connect to outer net, how can I transmit packets to them?
Any help will be appreciate.
Best Regards.
Maria
