[dpdk-dev] problem with Qlogic NIC QL45611H

[Wu, Xiaoban]

Dear Harish,


Thanks very much for your reply and help.

I have never enabled IOMMU.

I have enabled those two flags and run the program again, now the error message is:

1) Have you enabled IOMMU? If so, please try disabling it and try.

2) If (1) does not work then enable the below debug flag:
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_QEDE_DEBUG_INIT=y
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_QEDE_DEBUG_INFO=y
and recompile using same make command and send the output.


Thanks.
