Folks, I have HP BL460c gen9 blade which has 10G Intel 82599 chipset NIC (560FLB) but i am seeing following error when trying to attach DPDK port to OVS
[ 141.973124] vfio-pci 0000:06:00.1: DMAR: Device is ineligible for IOMMU domain attach due to platform RMRR requirement. Contact your platform vendor. I did google and found its hardware limitation, so i have upgraded the BIOS and NIC firmware but still getting the same issue. After more google i found some articles pointing here so advisory, but the following link is broken. not sure what option i have. (I don't have control with HP so can't ask for support) if someone know solution please let me know http://h20564.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c04781229&sp4ts.oid=5249566 This is my error: root@ubuntu-compute:~# ovs-vsctl add-port br-provider dpdk-0 -- set Interface dpdk-0 type=dpdk options:dpdk-devargs=0000:06:00.1 ovs-vsctl: Error detected while setting up 'dpdk-0': Error attaching device '0000:06:00.1' to DPDK.
