Subject: [dpdk-users] Ref: Excluding certain Rx Queues from the RSS hashing algorithm
Date: Mon, 5 Apr 2021 03:10:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <TU4PR8401MB0479318157552E5CEABF9DE2EC779@TU4PR8401MB0479.NAMPRD84.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM> (raw)

Hi,

We use the following hardware/software in our product:

* CPU: Intel Xeon Silver 4210
* NIC: XXV710-AM2
* NIC Firmware: 7.3/8.0
* Linux Kernel version: 4.14
* DPDK version: 20.08
* vfio-pci driver

Our DPDK application runs on 7 CPU threads. We have initialized 7 Rx Queues - one for each CPU thread.

We want to use one of the queues exclusively for traffic that matches Flow Director rules.
And, we want that when the RSS hashing algorithm provides action as Enqueue - it should not use that queue during its computation.

Example: We initialize Rx Queues 0 to 6.
Out of this, we want that Rx Queue 0 to 5 be used in the RSS hash algorithm when the action is enqueue.
Rx Queue 6 should be kept out of the RSS hashing logic.

This is wrt the i40e driver.

Is this possible?

regards,
venkatesh
