            Bug ID: 390
           Summary: netvsc: There are always too many packets in tx-drop
                    queue in testpmd tx-side
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 18.11
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: ethdev
          Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
          Reporter: mgamal@redhat.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Description of problem:
While we test dpdk on Azure with testpmd, there are too many packets in tx-drop
queue.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
DPDK-18.11

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Prepare 2 vms on Azure with dpdk installed
2.The 1st vm, start testpmd with txonly mode. The 2nd one start testpmd with
rx-only mode.And set 1st vm's peer mac address as the 2nd vm's mac address.
Conversely, set 2nd vm's peer mac address as the 1st one's mac address.

#TX-SIDE
#./testpmd -c 0xf -n 1 -w 0002:00:02.0
--vdev="net_vdev_netvsc0,iface=eth1,force=1" -- --port-topology=chained
--nb-cores 1 --forward-mode=txonly --eth-peer=1,00:0d:3a:a1:4b:43
--stats-period 1

#RX-SIDE
#./testpmd -c 0xf -n 1 -w 0002:00:02.0
--vdev="net_vdev_netvsc0,iface=eth1,force=1" -- --port-topology=chained
--nb-cores 1 --forward-mode=rxonly --eth-peer=1,00:0d:3a:a1:41:c7
--stats-period 1

3.Keep testpmd running up to 1 minute,then stop testpmd.

4.Check 2 vms' output

Actual results:
tx-side
++++++++ Accumulated forward statistics for all ports++++++++++
   RX-packets: 0              RX-dropped: 0             RX-total: 0
  TX-packets: 340381695     TX-dropped: 241822721  TX-total: 582204416
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
rx-side
++++++++ Accumulated forward statistics for all ports++++++
  RX-packets: 339493162    RX-dropped: 0     RX-total: 339493162
  TX-packets: 0              TX-dropped: 0             TX-total: 0
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++


Expected results:
There shouldn't be too many(40%-50%) packets in TX-dropped queue

Additional info:
The bug occurs in latest DPDK upstream
