netkvm: HLK NDISTest 6.5 - [1 Machine] - GenericMiniportRequirements test failed
Closed this issue · 5 comments
This is a query regarding an issue I encountered while running HLK tests. I noticed that the "NDISTest 6.5 - [1 Machine] - GenericMiniportRequirements" test case failed due to the absence of the Port1DeviceNumber or Port1FunctionNumber in the INF file. However, I observed that this particular test passes successfully during the automated HLK testing we carry out when submitting patches. I'm quite puzzled by this discrepancy. Could you please explain why this might be happening? thanks
I've seen this failure when I had multiple virtio-net vNICs added to the guest.
@zjmletang Do you also have several NICs during the failure as commented by @sb-ntnx ?
In any case, virtio-net is not multiport device (yet? we will see what happens with SR-IOv). https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/network/ddinstall-section-in-a-network-inf-file
So it looks like a bug in the test confusing several separate devices with a multiport device.
@zjmletang Do you also have several NICs during the failure as commented by @sb-ntnx ?
Yes, consistent with sb-ntnx's description, I later found during testing that the setup passed with just one network card inserted，thanks @sb-ntnx @YanVugenfirer
No problem.
Closing.
