Have I missed something? Please give me some information to understand this issue.

I found that I can run dpdk-pdump with ixgbe driver.
After comparing bnx2x_ethdev.c and ixgbe_ethdev.c, I found that bnx2x doesn't support multi-process:
https://dpdk.org/doc/guides/nics/overview.html
Since dpdk-pdump runs as a secondary process, it seems that it is not able to run with bnx2x.

testpmd: No probed ethernet devices message

I am trying to use DPDK 19.11 in centOS 8.0. I have compiled DPDK as per guidelines. Then I did bind ethernet NIC to DPDK driver and left Wifi to Linux kernel using dpdk_setup.sh.
1.When I try to use testpmd the following message is displayed.
"testpmd: No probed ethernet devices" though the port is bounded.
When I try to use dpdk_pdump, I get the message
EAL: Error - exiting with code: 1

I did refer the following question
DPDK run testpmd failed. EAL:no probed ethernet device.
2.If I put wifi interface also to DPDK driver whether testpmd will forward packets between two DPDK ports?
We bring down NIC interface so that it can be bounded to DPDK driver. Do we need to bring it up once it's attached with DPDK using any command?
Any inputs on how do I resolve it?
The expectation of Having RTL and Wifi are incorrect. List of supported DPDK ports.

It is evident the pktgen utility is
either not built with Mellanox PMD mlx5 based on the logs
or pktgen is not passed shared library for initlailizing MLX5 PMD
Since the DPDK used for building is DPDK version 20.11. The probability of pktgen build with the shared library is high. Passing eal argument as -d librte_net_mlx5.so should resolve the shared library issue.
Reason for not suggesting static library path is because of the logs of testpmd shows MLX5 is identified while eth0 and eth1 are non-existing interface and skipping PCAP PMD

[EDIT-1] requested for the proper details in comments too, none available.
[EDIT-2] to check if PKTGEN 21.01 is built with MXL5 PMD, in console check
pkg-config --cflags --libs --static libdpdk | grep -i mlx5
nm [pktgen-application] | grep -i mlx5
. Based on the updated logs, pktgen is not build with DPDK which is placed in /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu

Thanks in advance.
The real issue is here:
Specified port number(1) exceeds total system port number(0)
This means no ethernet ports has been detected. Please make sure you have bound at least one ethernet device to the UIO or VFIO driver as described in the DPDK Getting Started Guide:
https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/linux_gsg/linux_drivers.html#binding-and-unbinding-network-ports-to-from-the-kernel-modules

Can someone help me in configuring ports if port configuration is wrong or something else.
The above error was coming because the below driver are not supported:-
0000:81:00.0 'NetXtreme BCM5722 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express' drv=igb_uio unused=tg3
So Binding DPDK with supported driver solved the problem.
The dpdk-devbind.py tool might be a bit misleading here. Not all of the devices using DPDK-compatible driver is in fact supported by DPDK.
Here is the list of supported Broadcom NICs in DPDK:
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/nics/bnxt.html
Looks like the BCM5722 is not there.
On the other hand, it looks like you have four other NICs, which are supported by the DPDK:
EAL: PCI device 0000:02:00.0 on NUMA socket 0
EAL: probe driver: 8086:10fb net_ixgbe
EAL: PCI device 0000:02:00.1 on NUMA socket 0
EAL: probe driver: 8086:10fb net_ixgbe
EAL: PCI device 0000:04:00.0 on NUMA socket 0
EAL: probe driver: 8086:1521 net_e1000_igb
EAL: PCI device 0000:04:00.3 on NUMA socket 0
EAL: probe driver: 8086:1521 net_e1000_igb
So you need to bind one of those to igb_uio and try to run the example again.
