Hi Jing,

I ran into this issue while trying to run experiments with different RSS
configurations (no RSS being one cases). It is not clear to me that setting this
register to zero is the best way to disable RSS.

After digging further, I have a theory that I'm having this issues because I've
only attached my DPDK application to SR-IOV ports. In
fm10k_dev_dglort_map_configure(), I see that 'RSS Length' is set for the DGLORT
decoder. However, it appears that this is only invoked for physical functions.

Could this be my problem? Is it required that I bind to the physical function
if I want to properly manipulate RSS? 

Thanks,
Mike
