Due to the current environment I have, I tried a slightly different topo setup, instead of the above you described, my topo setup is: [testpmd1/txonly]----[vhost port #0]----+ | | [testpmd in the VM] | | [testpmd2/rxonly]----[vhost port #1]----+ That is to say, I'm using testpmd/{txonly,rxonly} directly without external traffic generators. Below is the script I'm using to launch the testpmds: # testpmd1: sudo ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/testpmd -l 1,2 \ --socket-mem 1024,1024 \ --file-prefix=vhost0 \ --no-pci \ --vdev=net_vhost0,iface=/tmp/socket-0,queues=1 \ -- \ --port-topology=chained \ -i \ --nb-cores=1 \ --forward-mode=txonly # testpmd2: sudo ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/testpmd -l 3,4 \ --socket-mem 1024,1024 \ --file-prefix=vhost1 \ --no-pci \ --vdev=net_vhost1,iface=/tmp/socket-1,queues=1 \ -- \ --port-topology=chained \ -i \ --nb-cores=1 \ --forward-mode=rxonly # testpmd in the VM: sudo \ ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/testpmd -l 1,2,3 \ --socket-mem 512 \ -- \ --burst=64 -i --txqflags=0xf00 --disable-hw-vlan \ --nb-cores=2 \ --forward-mode=mac Unfortunately, I failed to reproduce this issue. I'm starting the traffics of the testpmd1 and testpmd2 (i.e. txonly fwd in testpmd1 and rxonly fwd in testpmd2) before launching the testpmd in the VM. And I'm using 2 forwarding lcores for the testpmd in the VM: testpmd> show config fwd mac packet forwarding - ports=2 - cores=2 - streams=2 - NUMA support enabled, MP over anonymous pages disabled Logical Core 2 (socket 0) forwards packets on 1 streams: RX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:01 Logical Core 3 (socket 0) forwards packets on 1 streams: RX P=1/Q=0 (socket 0) -> TX P=0/Q=0 (socket 0) peer=02:00:00:00:00:00 I can see the traffics are forwarded once the fwd is started in the testpmd in the VM: testpmd> show port stats all ######################## NIC statistics for port 0 ######################## RX-packets: 52865632 RX-missed: 0 RX-bytes: 3383400448 RX-errors: 0 RX-nombuf: 0 TX-packets: 0 TX-errors: 0 TX-bytes: 0 Throughput (since last show) Rx-pps: 6040178 Tx-pps: 0 ############################################################################ ######################## NIC statistics for port 1 ######################## RX-packets: 0 RX-missed: 0 RX-bytes: 0 RX-errors: 0 RX-nombuf: 0 TX-packets: 52865568 TX-errors: 0 TX-bytes: 3383396352 Throughput (since last show) Rx-pps: 0 Tx-pps: 6040177 ############################################################################ The DPDK version I'm using is: 18.02-rc0 Do you see anything I missed?

I'm not sure whether it matches the condition you mentioned. It's strange that the number forwarding cores on the host would affect the virtio driver in the VM..
