[dpdk-users] EAL: Unable to parse device 'net_af_packet0, iface=eth0'

[Mohamed Mohamed]

Hi All:
 I running DPDK 18.11.6 release built with CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB=nI run inside docker container running ubuntu 18.04

DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu

DISTRIB_RELEASE=18.04

DISTRIB_CODENAME=bionic

DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS"
here are the command line args for DPDK
-m 256 -c 1 -n4 --no-pci --no-huge --log-level=8 --vdev=eth_af_packet0,iface=eth0
I am seeing :-EAL: Detected lcore 0 as core 0 on socket 0
EAL: Detected lcore 1 as core 1 on socket 0

EAL: Detected lcore 2 as core 0 on socket 0

EAL: Detected lcore 3 as core 1 on socket 0

EAL: Support maximum 128 logical core(s) by configuration.

EAL: Detected 4 lcore(s)

ERROR: failed to parse device "eth_af_packet0"

EAL: Unable to parse device 'eth_af_packet0,iface=eth0'

I also tried to use net_af_packet0 instead of eth_af_packet0 but I still get the same parse errors
any ideas/suggestions how I can debug this further ?
Thanks!!
