rte_eth_dev_count() #1

Open spand009 opened 6 years ago

spand009 commented 6 years ago

rte_eth_dev_count() (daq_dpdk.c) returns 0 despite of the same function returning 2 in $RTE_SDK/examples/ethtool's test. Likewise, rte_eth_dev_info_get(port, &inf) also return 0 in the attributes of the structure returned.

I am using: dpdk-stable-16.07.2

Here are the dpdk-binds:

Lastly, I also tried building dpdk with -fPIC, which did not fix it.

The snort version I have uses cmake, so I am not sure how to patch it to reflect this; if this were indeed the problem. `diff --git a/src/Makefile b/src/Makefile index bc947ba..54985aa 100644 --- a/src/Makefile +++ b/src/Makefile @@ -507,7 +507,7 @@ clean-binPROGRAMS:

Im facing this issue also.. the problem is that project structure changed and this make file dont exists any more...

talsaiag commented 5 years ago

I had a similar issue in another project, turns out, as @spand009 mentioned - DPDK requires a couple of libraries to be linked even if not used by the code (specifically the PWDs that are registered automatically on library load - which causes rte_eth_dev_count to return 0) use the -Wl,--whole-archive,-ldpdk,--no-whole-archive during the linking stage to link with the whole dpdk library to fix the issue.
