Hi Joe,

I just tried this on my dev system and didn’t see any problems.  Both the submodule and an explicit DPDK clone worked with no issues.

Subject: [SPDK] DPDK Submodules Git Clone Problem

Hi folks-

Trying to set up SPDK for my first time.  I don’t seem able to clone the DPDK submodule.  Any ideas?  Am I doing something wrong?

I cloned the SPDK git without issue:

rsa@tppjoe08:~$ git clone https://github.com/spdk/spdk.git

Cloning into 'spdk'...

remote: Counting objects: 47636, done.

remote: Compressing objects: 100% (142/142), done.

remote: Total 47636 (delta 141), reused 89 (delta 76), pack-reused 47418

Receiving objects: 100% (47636/47636), 15.67 MiB | 34.00 MiB/s, done.

Resolving deltas: 100% (36457/36457), done.

Then I went into the directory and checked out the 18.04 release branch:

rsa@tppjoe08:~$ cd spdk/

rsa@tppjoe08:~/spdk$ git checkout v18.04

Note: checking out 'v18.04'.

HEAD is now at 9eb54cae SPDK 18.04

Then the init submodules step is failing.  I’d think maybe a network problem, but my initial SPDK git clone worked just fine, so I think my network is OK.  Maybe someone else could try this quickly and see if it is a problem at the github end?

rsa@tppjoe08:~/spdk$ git submodule update --init

Submodule 'dpdk' (https://github.com/spdk/dpdk.git) registered for path 'dpdk'

Cloning into '/home/rsa/spdk/dpdk'...

fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

fatal: clone of 'https://github.com/spdk/dpdk.git' into submodule path '/home/rsa/spdk/dpdk' failed

Failed to clone 'dpdk'. Retry scheduled

Cloning into '/home/rsa/spdk/dpdk'...

fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

fatal: clone of 'https://github.com/spdk/dpdk.git' into submodule path '/home/rsa/spdk/dpdk' failed

Failed to clone 'dpdk' a second time, aborting

Trying to just directly clone the DPDK submodule git also fails:

rsa@tppjoe08:~$ git clone https://github.com/spdk/dpdk.git

Cloning into 'dpdk'...

fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Thanks,

Joe
