The GVE PMD provides poll mode driver support for Google Virtual Ethernet device (also called as gVNIC).
This repository is not an independent buildable unit. It should be built as a whole package in https://github.com/DPDK
- Get DPDK from https://github.com/DPDK/dpdk.
- Overwrite the Gve source files:
cp -r * $DPDK/drivers/net/gve
- Build DPDK
meson -Dexamples=all build; ninja -C build
Note: This is an out of tree driver and may not be part of official DPDK release. There might be instances when the source in compute-virtual-ethernet-dpdk
might have build/performance issues when built andrun with DPDK. Please create an issue for such cases.
