Subject: [dpdk-users] Outer VLAN stripping X710 NIC
Date: Fri, 22 Feb 2019 08:59:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAPP7y6wWGB=a=3JDUTHbD4piPqcHcEXQuw62t6E7xrEuq5w2TA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hello DPDK Team,
I am having an issue with the behavior of Intel X710 NIC and would like
some clarification.
When the card receives packets with QinQ (double 802.1Q) the RX_RSS based
on L3 and L4 information is not working without specifying
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_VLAN_EXTEND.
However, by specifying the mentioned flag, the card automatically strips
outer VLAN from the packet (even without using other offload flags like
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_VLAN_STRIP) while leaving only the inner VLAN in the packet.
I know that the TCI from the stripped VLAN can be found in rte_mbuf
structure, but is it possible to force the card to keep the outer VLAN in
the packet (and still maintain working RSS)?
I do not know, whether this is an issue with DPDK design or the X710 NIC
itself. I was unable to find any useful information in the card datasheet.
Any clarification on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
All the best
Tom
