+Fortville: Support of RX Packet Filtering using VMDQ & DCB Features
+===================================================================
+
+The Intel Network Interface Card(e.g. XL710), supports a number of
+packet filtering functions which can be used to distribute incoming packets
+into a number of reception (RX) queues. VMDQ & DCB is a pair of such filtering
+functions which operate on VLAN-tagged packets to distribute those packets
+to RX queues.
+
+The feature itself works by:
+
+- splitting the incoming packets up into different "pools" - each with its own
+  set of RX queues - based upon the VLAN ID within the VLAN tag of the packet.
+- assigning each packet to a specific queue within the pool, based upon the
+  user priority field within the VLAN tag.
+
+The VMDQ & DCB features are enabled in the ``vmdq_dcb`` example application
+contained in the DPDK, and this application should be used to validate
+the feature.
+
+Prerequisites
+=============
+
+- The DPDK is compiled for the appropriate target type in each case, and
+  the VMDQ & DCB example application is compiled and linked with that DPDK
+  instance
+- Two ports are connected to the test system, one to be used for packet reception,
+  the other for transmission
+- The traffic generator being used is configured to send to the application RX
+  port a stream of packets with VLAN tags, where the VLAN IDs increment from 0
+  to the pools numbers(inclusive) and the VLAN user priority field increments from
+  0 to 7 (inclusive) for each VLAN ID.
+- Build vmdq_dcb example,
+  make -C examples/vmdq_dcb RTE_SDK=`pwd` T=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
+
+Test Case 1: Verify VMDQ & DCB with 32 Pools and 4 TCs
+======================================================
+
+1. Run the application as the following::
+
+    ./examples/vmdq_dcb/build/vmdq_dcb_app -c 0xff -n 4 -- -p 0x3 --nb-pools 32 --nb-tcs 4 --enable-rss
+
+2. Start traffic transmission using approx 10% of line rate.
+3. After a number of seconds, e.g. 15, stop traffic, and ensure no traffic
+   loss (<0.001%) has occurred.
+4. Send a hangup signal (SIGHUP) to the application to have it print out the
+   statistics of how many packets were received per RX queue::
+
+     kill -s SIGHUP  `pgrep -fl vmdq_dcb_app | awk '{print $1}'`
+
+Expected Result:
+
+- No packet loss is expected.
+- Every RX queue should have received approximately (+/-15%) the same number of
+  incoming packets
+- verify queue id should be equal "vlan user priority value % 4".
+
+Test Case 2: Verify VMDQ & DCB with 16 Pools and 8 TCs
+======================================================
+
+1. change CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_QUEUE_NUM_PER_VM to 8 in "./config/common_linuxapp", rebuild DPDK.
+
+2. Repeat Test Case 1, with `--nb-pools 16` and `--nb-tcs 8` of the sample application::
+
+    ./examples/vmdq_dcb/build/vmdq_dcb_app -c 0xff -n 4 -- -p 0x3 --nb-pools 16 --nb-tcs 8 --enable-rss
+
+Expected result:
+- No packet loss is expected
+- Every RX queue should have received approximately (+/-15%) the same number of incoming packets
+- verify queue should be equal "vlan user priority value"
+
+3. change CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_QUEUE_NUM_PER_VM to 16 in "./config/common_linuxapp", rebuild DPDK.
+
+4. Repeat Test Case 1, with `--nb-pools 16` and `--nb-tcs 8` of the sample application::
+
+   ./examples/vmdq_dcb/build/vmdq_dcb_app -c 0xff -n 4 -- -p 0x3 --nb-pools 16 --nb-tcs 8 --enable-rss
+
+Expected result:
+- No packet loss is expected
+- Every RX queue should have received approximately (+/-15%) the same number of incoming packets
+- verify queue id should be in [vlan user priority value * 2, vlan user priority value * 2 + 1]
+
+(NOTE: SIGHUP output will obviously change to show 8 columns per row, with only 16 rows)
