[Test Setup]
Steps to reproduce
List the steps to reproduce the issue.

1, Build dpdk
rm -rf x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
CC=gcc meson -Denable_kmods=True -Dlibdir=lib  --default-library=static
x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
ninja -C x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc

2, Bind one NIC port and launch vhost-user
usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --force --bind=vfio-pci 0000:4b:00.0
x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/dpdk-testpmd -l 5-7 -n 8 -a 0000:4b:00.0
--file-prefix=vhost_343434_20250703181552 --vdev

--rxq=2 --txq=2  --txd=1024 --rxd=1024
set fwd mac
start

3, Launch qemu and start testpmd
lsof -n -i:6000
taskset -c 20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27
/home/QEMU/qemu-10.0.2/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 -name vm0 -enable-kvm -pidfile
/tmp/.vm0.pid -daemonize -monitor unix:/tmp/vm0_monitor.sock,server,nowait
-netdev user,id=nttsip1,hostfwd=tcp:10.239.252.245:6000-:22 -device

-cpu host -smp 8 -m 8192 -object

IN VM:
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/mm/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages
echo 1024 >
/sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages
modprobe vfio
modprobe vfio-pci
echo 1 > /sys/module/vfio/parameters/enable_unsafe_noiommu_mode
usertools/dpdk-devbind.py --force --bind=vfio-pci --noiommu-mode 0000:00:04.0
x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/dpdk-testpmd  -c 0x7 -n 4 -- -i
--enable-hw-vlan-strip --nb-cores=2 --rxq=2 --txq=2 --txd=1024 --rxd=1024
set fwd mac
start

4, Use trex to send pkgs
Ether(dst="40:a6:b7:96:e4:00")/IP(src="192.168.4.1")/("X"*26)

5, on Vhost side check NIC statistics:
testpmd> show port stats all

[Actual Result]
testpmd> show port stats all
