Thanks, I had validated the 'rx_drop_en' setting. It's worked.

A multi-process application receive packets from queues and each process reads a queue. When I kill one process, the process's queue is full, all descriptors of the queue is used. Then I send packets to other queues, but no packet is received by other processes from other queues. And no ierrors at the port stats.  I'm not sure it's a bug or designed that way.

You need to turn on the "drop enable" bit in your NIC configuration to allow 
packets for full queues to be dropped, allowing other queues to continue as normal.
In DPDK this is set by the value "rx_drop_en" in the rx configuration.

In the latest DPDK tree, you can see this value being set for the symmetric mp
example application in: examples/multi_process/symmetric_mp/main.c
