The type of ethernet card that DPDK require

hi,all
     I'm confused which type of ethernet card that DPDK require.
     After I insmod igb_uio.ko, it seems that this driver cann't make my enternet card driven.
 
    Then I find the following code writen in igb_uio.c:
 
static struct pci_device_id igbuio_pci_ids[]={
#define RET_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL(vend,dev){PCI_DEVICE(vend,dev)};
#include <rte_pci_dev_ids.h>
{0,},
};

      And in rte_pci_dev_ids.h:
 
#ifdef RTE_LIBRTE_IGB_PMD
#define E1000_DEV_ID_82576      0x10c9
……

#ifdef RTE_LIBRTE_IXGBe\E_PMD
#define IXGBE_DEV_ID_82598      0x10b6
……

my ethernet card ：82575EB, which wasn't in the list above
driver：igb，3.2.10-k
 
I will be grateful for any help.
Best Regards
 
Maria

Hi,

You can check the supported NICs from the release notes provided. They also
contain the list of supported operating systems. That maybe of help to you.

Best regards.

Hi,

No, I don't think 82575 is supported. I don't see it in the list of tested
NICs.
The release notes just mention the recommended operating systems. I have
seen people running DPDK on CentOS.

Hope that helps.

Best regards.

OK. Since this type of question has already been asked and will probably be 
asked again and again, I will explain it on the website.

For the record, here is how you should search for a supported NIC:

# grep -r 'RTE_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL.*82575' lib
RTE_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, E1000_DEV_ID_82575EB_COPPER)
RTE_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, 	E1000_DEV_ID_82575EB_FIBER_SERDES)
RTE_PCI_DEV_ID_DECL(PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL, E1000_DEV_ID_82575GB_QUAD_COPPER)

So your NIC 82575EB is supported.

As you can see, the source code is a good documentation.
To all users, please try to search in it before asking questions.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the clarification and explanation. Much appreciated.
I guess it becomes a little hard for people who have just started working
with DPDK to figure that out.

Thanks for the help.
Best regards.
