configuration hugepages:¶

• 2M (1024*2k): hugepages=1024 (at runtime: echo 1024 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages)
• 4G (4x1G): default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G hugepages=4 (only works at boot time via grub)

mkdir /mnt/huge
mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/huge

Compile and load modules:¶

Note: source tools/setup.sh is a helper tools for this but works only with IGB driver not e1000e

# apt-get install make gcc linux-headers-amd64
# make config T=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc
# make T=x86_64-default-linuxapp-gcc
..
Build complete

# modprobe uio  (I think this is not useful)
# insmod build/kmod/rte_kni.ko (I think this is not useful)
# insmod build/kmod/igb_uio.ko (I think this is not useful)
# ./tools/pci_unbind.py --status

Prepare examples programs:¶

# export RTE_SDK=/root/sileht/dpdk-1.6.0r1
# export RTE_TARGET=build
# cd /root/sileht/
# cp -r $RTE_SDK/examples/helloworld my_rte_app
# cd my_rte_app
# make
