Installing DPDK from the Ports Collection
=========================================
The easiest way to get up and running with the DPDK on FreeBSD is to
install it from the ports collection. Details of getting and using the ports
collection are documented in the
`FreeBSD Handbook <http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/index.html>`_.
.. note::
Testing has been performed using FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE (x86_64) and requires the
installation of the kernel sources, which should be included during the
installation of FreeBSD.
Installing the DPDK FreeBSD Port
--------------------------------
On a system with the ports collection installed in ``/usr/ports``, the DPDK
can be installed using the commands:
.. code-block:: console
cd /usr/ports/net/dpdk
make install
After the installation of the DPDK port, instructions will be printed on
how to install the kernel modules required to use the DPDK. A more
complete version of these instructions can be found in the sections
:ref:`loading_contigmem` and :ref:`loading_nic_uio`. Normally, lines like
those below would be added to the file ``/boot/loader.conf``.
.. code-block:: console
# Reserve 2 x 1G blocks of contiguous memory using contigmem driver:
hw.contigmem.num_buffers=2
hw.contigmem.buffer_size=1073741824
contigmem_load="YES"
# Identify NIC devices for DPDK apps to use and load nic_uio driver:
hw.nic_uio.bdfs="2:0:0,2:0:1"
nic_uio_load="YES"
Compiling and Running the Example Applications
----------------------------------------------
When the DPDK has been installed from the ports collection it installs
its example applications in ``/usr/local/share/dpdk/examples`` - also accessible via
symlink as ``/usr/local/share/examples/dpdk``. These examples can be compiled and
run as described in :ref:`compiling_sample_apps`. In this case, the required
environmental variables should be set as below:
* ``RTE_SDK=/usr/local/share/dpdk``
* ``RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-bsdapp-clang``
.. note::
To install a copy of the DPDK compiled using gcc, please download the
official DPDK package from http://core.dpdk.org/download/ and install manually using
the instructions given in the next chapter, :ref:`building_from_source`
An example application can therefore be copied to a user's home directory and
compiled and run as below:
.. code-block:: console
export RTE_SDK=/usr/local/share/dpdk
export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-bsdapp-clang
cp -r /usr/local/share/dpdk/examples/helloworld .
cd helloworld/
gmake
CC main.o
LD helloworld
INSTALL-APP helloworld
INSTALL-MAP helloworld.map
sudo ./build/helloworld -l 0-3 -n 2

.. note::
To run a DPDK process as a non-root user, adjust the permissions on
the ``/dev/contigmem`` and ``/dev/uio device`` nodes as described in section
:ref:`running_non_root`
.. note::
For an explanation of the command-line parameters that can be passed to an
DPDK application, see section :ref:`running_sample_app`.
