HI Guys, I will continue this thread. On ubuntu 14.4 (Kernel 3.13) with DPDK 1.7 vmxnet3-usermap 1.2 doesn't compile. >From the git it seems to have been updated 3 months ago. Is this project going to be killed? And should I look for different alternatives. On Tue, Jul 8, 2014 at 6:08 PM, Hyunseo

Thomas, The last time I tried vmxnet3-usermap a couple of weeks ago, it did not compile against the latest kernel (3.11). Is it still the case? Or do you have the latest version which is compatible with newer kernels? Also, do you have any benchmark numbers with vmxnet3-usermap in any chance?

Hi, I was testing l2-fwd with vmxnet3 pmd (included in dpdk). The maximum forwarding rate I got from vmxnet3 pmd with l2fwd is only 2.5 to 2.8 Gbps. This is in contrast with ixgbe pmd with which I could easily achieve 10 gbps forwarding rate. With the original vmxnet3 driver (non pmd), I could
