Yes, this issue has a bugzilla: https://bugs.dpdk.org/show_bug.cgi?id=573 , and it's exists in both 19.11 and 20.11
It only affects one scene, we are waiting for a new version of this patch: https://patches.dpdk.org/patch/84056/

It's may be related to compatibility, because the same issue does not appear on 4.4.0-142-generic.
