Hi Fabio,
Have you tried to specify EAL option --log-level="pmd.net.igc,debug"
or --log-level='.*',8 when running the application? Perhaps doing
so can trigger printouts [1], [2]. See if you can't observe those.
Perhaps consider posting a brief excerpt of your code where
rte_eth_rx_burst() is invoked and return value is verified.
Also, albeit unrelated, it's rather peculiar that the code
does CPU-to-LE conversion [3] of descriptor status, but
the field itslef is declared as __le32 already: [4].

[2] https://github.com/DPDK/dpdk/blob/v24.03/drivers/net/igc/igc_txrx.c#L455
[3] https://github.com/DPDK/dpdk/blob/v24.03/drivers/net/igc/igc_txrx.c#L264

Thank you.
