Hi Team,

I am using the mlx5/100G in KVM guest. The host shows this PCI vfNIC is provisioned to the guest:
      "17:01.1 Ethernet controller: Mellanox Technologies MT27800 Family [ConnectX-5 Virtual Function]"

I am using DPDK 19.11 with kind of standard configurations, and when DPDK application runs I still have the kernel mlx5e net device present. I have both promiscuous and all-multicast turned on.

It works fine for IPV4, but for IPV6 it fails. It can receive packets destined to 33:33:00:00:00:02 (IPV6 Router solicitation), but cannot receive packets destined to 33:33:ff:00:00:01 (IPV6 neighbor solicitation for some address).

But if I avoid DPDK, directly use the OFED-4.6 based kernel driver, everything works fine as expected.

I am thinking there is some mismatch happened for MLX5 PMD. Please give some advice/hints.

Many thanks

Liwu
