Hello,

I'm having trouble using rte_hash, as it would 'lock' some items
It runs like a charm in the beginning, but after some time, it appears 
that some items are not being correctly removed
I've tried with rcu and locks, without rcu and not using any 
extra_flags, and lot of other things, all without success
For the first 15 seconds, everything looks good
After this, the rte_hash_count start dropping, goes bellow 0 and returns 
to UINT_MAX, but when counting the items when iterating trough the hash, 
it appears fine
But after around 4 to 5 minutes (sometimes more), the iteration count 
begins to go up, and the items not found (that i have deleted, but are 
showing when iterating) begins to increase.
At the end of the program, there are always a lot of items left in the list.
Could this be some problem with the list, maybe running out of space or 
having trouble deleting items with hash colision
Or is it something that I'm doing wrong ?

The output of my run was this:
