Hi Wenzhuo,
Tried UDP as well as TCP.
Also use dump function to check if packet it correct or not. I found packet perfectly fine.
but anyhow problem still remain the same.
Wenzhuo: Glad to know the problem is not related to the protocol. I don’t find anything wrong in your code, except I’m not sure if the mask for dst_ip is right. Suppose it’s right ☺ Seems having to check if the register is right. I mean the registers in the function ixgbe_add_5tuple_filter. Not sure if it’s easy to check them in your APP. If not, maybe you can try testpmd first.

Hi Wenzhuo,
Thanks for the reply. Yes, i am using ixgbe.

On software front, this is what i am doing.....

I am using DPDK 16.04 and pktgen 3.0.00

On my DPDK machine, i have configured RSS rule just for Destination IP (172.10.10.2).

From Pktgen when i changed destination IP as 172.10.10.2, proto *as *ICMP, and after that i tried command ping4 0
Wenzhuo: Interesting, you’re using ICMP. Would you like to try UDP/TCP?

Packet reaches to correct queue in DPDK application.

But if i changed the source IP at packet gen (any IP other then 192.168.0.1), I am not getting packet at desired core on DPDK machine.

Here is my pktgen IP looks like.

If i revert my my source IP change, it again reached to correct core.

My port configuration is

Suppose you're using 5-tuple, right? Suppose you're using a igb or ixgbe NIC as 5-tuple is only supported by igb/ixgbe, right?
Would you like to let us know what you've done? I mean how you disable the other things.
I think you might set the mask to do that. And please aware if the mask is FF, means the field is used. On the contrary, the mask should be 0.
