#. Bind the QLogic adapters to ``igb_uio`` or ``vfio-pci`` loaded in the
previous step::
- ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --bind igb_uio 0000:84:00.0 0000:84:00.1
+ ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --bind igb_uio 0000:84:00.0 0000:84:00.1
or
sudo chmod 0666 /dev/vfio/*
- ./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --bind vfio-pci 0000:84:00.0 0000:84:00.1
+ ./usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --bind vfio-pci 0000:84:00.0 0000:84:00.1
#. Start ``testpmd`` with basic parameters:
.. code-block:: console
- ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/testpmd -c 0xf -n 4 -- -i
+ ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/testpmd -l 0-3 -n 4 -- -i
Example output:
#. Assign VF MAC address:

+ Assign MAC address to the VF using iproute2 utility. The syntax is:
ip link set <PF iface> vf <VF id> mac <macaddr>
Example output:

The VF devices may be passed through to the guest VM using virt-manager or
virsh etc. bnx2x PMD should be used to bind the VF devices in the guest VM
