Hello,

Installed Proxmox 6 and would like to compile DPKD and install openvswitch.
Installed package pve-headers, however during compile of DPKD:

make[7]: *** /lib/modules/5.0.15-1-pve/build: No such file or directory. Stop.
make[6]: *** [/usr/src/dpdk-stable-18.11.5/mk/rte.module.mk:51: igb_uio.ko] Error 2

make: *** [/usr/src/dpdk-stable-18.11.5/mk/rte.sdkroot.mk:79: install] Error 2
root@pve:/usr/src/dpdk-stable-18.11.5#

Would you please you please let me know how can i solve this problem?

Thanks
 
At the time of compiling, what was you running kernel and what version of pve-headers was installed?

Hello lhorace,

root@pve:~# uname -a
Linux pve 5.0.15-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.0.15-1 (Wed, 03 Jul 2019 10:51:57 +0200) x86_64 GNU/Linux

root@pve:~# apt list --installed | grep pve-headers

WARNING: apt does not have a stable CLI interface. Use with caution in scripts.

pve-headers-5.0/stable,now 6.0-11 all [installed,automatic]
pve-headers/stable,now 6.0-2 all [installed]

Thanks for your respond, seems there is a new kernel but i have not updated it yet

root@pve:~# pveupgrade
Starting system upgrade: apt-get dist-upgrade

The following NEW packages will be installed:
pve-kernel-5.0.21-5-pve

After installed it, restart and compile again, seems ok now.
Thank you!

if needed, I just backported ovs 2.11 from debian testing, with dpdk support too.

Do you really need to rebuild dpdk package ? (because it's already available in debian buster https://packages.debian.org/buster/dpdk)

Hello,

The reason i rebuild the dpdk is that i know it only works with the kernel headers....

If i install the package will that works for the kernel too? Also does this works for openswitch as well(openswitch with dpkd)? (Sorry for the doubting)

Indeed even i can compile that dpkd successfully , i still have problem of install openvswitch with that...
