16.7 Legacy Series / Suricata and Intel 10G NICs ixl driver
« on: November 17, 2016, 08:30:27 pm »
Does anyone have Suricata running inline using Intel 10G NICs that utilize the ixl driver? If I turn on Suricata on just the WAN, it starts, but passes no traffic. If I apply it to my LAN interface (the WAN and the LAN ports are on the same dual-port card in the server), Suricata refuses to start with the following errors in the log:
kernel: 243.641388 [1423] netmap_mem_rings_create Cannot allocate buffers for rx_ring
kernel: 243.640569 [ 683] netmap_new_bufs no more buffers after 1022 of 1024
kernel: 243.639788 [ 518] netmap_obj_malloc no more netmap_buf objects
My server is a Dell R530 dual-processor server, with 32G of memory and the 10G Intel X710 dual port NIC - yes, I'm trying to pass a lot of traffic...
