Subject: [dpdk-users] testpmd / SR-IOV RX packets, but TX-errors
Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2019 10:01:00 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAO8xzOv3m4Rp1a1cTWRGqNTYYJSgF-ThEriNAtAo23Y=ADJrqA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I'm trying run testpmd with SR-IOV, specifically across two VFs. I see
packets being received successfully by the application but they are not
being transmitted. They are dropped with the 'TX-errors' counters
incrementing.
However, if I generate the same traffic and the DUT isn't programmed with
SR-IOV, but with testpmd just across PFs, the packets are transmitted just
fine and I don't have any TX-errors. I'm hoping someone can help me figure
out why the TX packets are being dropped in the SR-IOV case.
testpmd is running in the default "io" mode.
The DUT is a two port Intel xxv710 25G card. To simplify things, I'm not
actually using a guest, just testpmd across VFs.

Starting traffic at the far end, packets are RX successfully on the DUT but
not TX, with many TX-errors:
