Basic DPDK

This is a basic DPDK application meant as a learning exercice. it includes

• A Client sending messages
• A Server receiving them and printing payloads

Config

You can edit env.h to configure the project as you like.

Build

First, you need to be sure to link DPDK correctly. To do so, you might want to use the following commands :

# PKG-CONFIG CONFIG
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/path/to/libdpdk.pc/
# Example : PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/home/clement/dpdk/build/meson-private/
# CONFIG LINKER
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/path/to/dpdk/folder/build/lib/
# Example : export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/clement/dpdk/build/lib/
sudo ldconfig

Then just go within server/ and client/ and run :

make static
