Hi,
As far as I understand the code of rte_distributor,
rte_distributor_process() assign packets to workers using
m->pkt.hash.rss field of the mbuf. It means that Receive Side Scaling
should be initialized for the NIC. Otherwise, all packets would be
erroneously distributed to the same single worker.
Am I correct? maybe the RSS requirement should be added to the
description of the library then?
I apparently have some trouble enabling RSS for vmxnet3 pmd driver, so
the question is whether it is right or wrong to calculate and fill the
m->pkt.hash.rss field using my own hash function?
