Hello experts,

We are currently running the latest DPDK driver on a Linux VM on KVM host.

We are using Intel XL710 NIC (40G mode) in SRIOV mode on the VM.
The PF side is the standard i40e Linux Kernel driver.

What is the maximum number of HW RSS queues that can be allocated for the
i40e poll mode VF driver?

As per the link: http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/nics/intel_vf.html , upto 16
RSS queues can be supported per VF.

*Question*
Could you please confirm the same number holds good with the latest i40e
 kernel PF driver?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Nirmal
