Hi, I'm trying to replicate this setup on a baremetal server with a Netronome CX 2x10 NIC. My question is what was the OS and kernel version of the server hosting the Netronome NIC on your setup? More specifically are the details I want to know:

OS name/version
Linux kernel version
Netronome SDK & RTE version

I'm currently using the 6.1-preview SDK/RTE and IDE with the agilio-sriov-firmware/now 2.1.16.1-1 and I've tried it on these setups:

Ubuntu 18.04, Kernel Version 4.15

  • SDK and RTE installs without errors
  • nfp-hwdbg-srv and nfp-sdk6-rte are running
  • IDE is able to successfully initiate Hardware Debug mode, connected to the server
  • Problem: Can't seem to enable SR-IOV, returns an error saying:
    write error: Input/output error
    on the logs it says:
    nfp 0000:01:00.0: Failed to enable PCI SR-IOV: -5
    I've already tried the suggestions here to enable SR-IOV for Ubuntu, but it doesn't seem to help

Centos 7, Kernel Version 3.10

  • SDK and RTE installs without errors
  • SR-IOV is enabled
  • Problem: Can't start nfp-hwdbg-srv and nfp-sdk6-rte services
    I can't load the nfp firmware with the nfp_dev_cpp=0 parameter, it says that the parameter does not exist. From my searching, it says that this is because this is an older kernel version
