Subject: [dpdk-dev] [Bug 444] DPDK fails to receive packets in Azure when using more than 3 transmit queues

            Bug ID: 444
           Summary: DPDK fails to receive packets in Azure when using more
                    than 3 transmit queues
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 19.11
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: core
          Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
          Reporter: christopher.swindle@metaswitch.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I have setup two accelerated interfaces on Azure for use with DPDK and am using
the failsafe driver to bind to the interfaces, I find that if I set to use more
than 3 transmit queues then one of the interfaces will fail to receive packets
(even though there are no error shown).

Below is an example of the config that I use for a working case:

/usr/bin/testpmd -n 2   -w 0002:00:02.0   -w 0003:00:02.0  
--vdev="net_vdev_netvsc0,iface=eth1"   --vdev="net_vdev_netvsc1,iface=eth2"  
-- --forward-mode=rxonly   --nb-cores 1   --stats-period 1   --txq 3

If I change just the txq from 3 to 4, then rx packet counts do not go up for
both interfaces. If I increase this to 10 transmit queues then both interfaces
fail to receive packets.

I am currently running using the AKS image with the mxl4_ib module loaded
(although the same issue can also be seen when using ConnectX 5 devices in
Azure). As it seemed possible that it may have been a kernel issue, I also
updated my kernel to 5.0.0-1032-azure and the same behaviour is also seen.
