Subject: [dpdk-stable] [PATCH 19.11 3/4] net/mlx5: limit inner RSS expansion for MPLS
Date: Sat, 14 Aug 2021 15:19:35 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <591a1c75ff9a57e90f884abb13839b2bd62ad2b2.1628923046.git.jackmin@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1628923046.git.jackmin@nvidia.com>
[ upstream commit a26cc30fa0463fb6707b0caea1a288dc54c09b0f ]
If user wants to do MPLS inner RSS and only provides pattern
till MPLS without inner items [1], RSS expansion will expand flows
into 13 sub-flows[2] which is too many and it impacts flow insert
rate, stack usage becomes large as well.
This expansion into 13 sub-flows seems not worthy of and it can
be significantly reduced (i.e, 7 sub-flows [3]) by user providing
at least one inner L2/L3 item [4].
[1]:
pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / mpls / end actions rss type tcp udp ip
end level 2 / end
[2]:
eth / ipv4 / udp / mpls
eth / ipv4 / udp / mpls / ipv4
eth / ipv4 / udp / mpls / ipv4 / udp
eth / ipv4 / udp / mpls / ipv4 / tcp

[4]:

level 2 / end
