Hi,

we are trying to run two instances of pktgen-dpdk on the same host, each one working on one network interface

we use the following commands to run pktgen:

sudo -E ./app/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/pktgen -l 0-4 -n 3 --file-prefix pg1 -b 06:00.1 -- -P -m "1.0"

sudo -E ./app/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/pktgen -l 5-8 -n 3 --file-prefix pg0 -b 06:00.0 -- -P -m "1.0"

each one is working separately, but if we run the second one when the first one is running (or vice-versa), we receive this error :

Create: Default TX 0:0 - Memory used (MBUFs 16384 x (size 2176 + Hdr 128)) + 192 = 36865 KB, headroom 128 !PANIC!: Cannot create mbuf pool (Default TX 0:0) port 0, queue 0, nb_mbufs 16384, socket_id 0: No such file or directory

1: [./app/x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/pktgen(rte_dump_stack+0x2b) [0x50aadb]]

we are using
-- Pktgen Ver: 3.5.1 (DPDK 18.08.0-rc0)  Powered by DPDK
** Version: DPDK 18.08.0-rc0, Command Line Interface with timers

are we doing something wrong?

Stefano
