DART-MX95 DPDK bring up

[dmonge]

Hi,

I am working on bringing up DPDK on the DART-MX95. I have been following the instructions in the i.MX Linux Reference Manual, specifically Chapter 10: Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK).

In section 10.5.2.2, the manual specifies the device tree (dtb) to be used for the i.MX 95 EVK. However, I couldn’t find any mention of a DPDK-supported device tree for the DART-MX95. Are there any recommended device tree configurations or specific modifications required for this platform?

Related Information:

• I am using the nanbield release of Yocto.
• The Yocto DPDK recipe comes from this source.

Additionally, I’ve encountered the following issues:

1. In section 10.5.4.2.1, the command below results in an error:

# devlink dev param set pci/0002:00:08.0 name si_num_rings cmode driverinit value 0106

/tmp/devlink dev param set pci/0002:00:08.0 name si_num_rings cmode driverinit value 0106 kernel answers: No such device

1. When attempting to set VF trust mode using the command:

# ip link set eth0 vf 0 trust on

RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported

1. My primary issue is that DPDK does not recognize the port bonded for DPDK usage. To test DPDK functionality, I follow these steps:

# dpdk-devbind.py --bind=uio_pci_generic 0002:00:00.0

# dpdk-devbind.py -s

Could you provide guidance on resolving these issues? Are there additional configurations or dependencies I need to address?

Thank you for your support.
