[dpdk-dev] DPDK on Xen Dom-U hangs during hugepage setup

Hello Murillo,

Yes, am using rte_dom0_mm as explained in DPDK programmers guide section 14.3.3 step (4).

The examples work when using --no-huge option. 

Are you able to go past the hugepage setup? If so can you tell what are the steps you followed in addition to the ones explained in section 14.3.

Thanks,
 Kiran

Hello,

Xen does not support hugepages, so you have to use a kernel module called rte_dom0_mm.
The instructions are in the getting started guide in the seccion 2.3.3.
If you manage to execute any example please tell me, because I am stuck during the execution of the examples after configuring the environment.
