Subject: [dpdk-dev] [Bug 645] mlx5 does not reflect lpbk_mode setting
Date: Mon, 01 Mar 2021 11:13:14 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-645-3@http.bugs.dpdk.org/> (raw)

            Bug ID: 645
           Summary: mlx5 does not reflect lpbk_mode setting
           Product: DPDK
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: ethdev
          Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
          Reporter: viktorin@cesnet.cz
  Target Milestone: ---

The mlx5 PMD does not seem to reflect rte_eth_conf.lpbk_mode=1 settings to a
port when calling rte_eth_dev_configure(). It is expected that after this
setting everything sent on TX of that port would be returned on RX of the same
port but no packet is received.

System: CentOS 7, DPDK 20.11.0, OFED-5.2-1.0.4, rdma-core
1fdf0b375818823ead89cd39ff2ff4c1279a60f4.

Tested NICs: MT2892 Family [ConnectX-6 Dx] 101d (fw 22.28.1002), MT27800 Family
[ConnectX-5] 1017 (fw 16.27.2008)

Reproduce:

```
  > port stop all
  > set fwd txonly
  > port config all loopback 1
  > port start all
  > start 
  > show port stats all

The same steps work with 82599ES/ixgbe with results like (RX-missed roughly
quals to TX-packets):
```
