Hi Xiaoban,

Thank you for your sharing link, which definitely works. 
 
Actually, this RSS problem does not occur in my ENV setting (DPDK-18.02), which seems appearing in @Kong ’s setting (DPDK-17.08). (:, I have not checked whether it is the problem of DPDK version.

Best Regards,
Zhilong

It works fine when we use an Intel 82599ES 10Gig NIC. However when we switch to the Intel XL710 40Gig NIC (i40e), RSS does not seem to work. As a result, TCP packets belonging to various flows (with different src&dst IPs, ports) are all sent into the same RX queue. Below is our code.

Another thing is when we tried to enable RSS or setup hash fields in testpmd, it showed error messages as follows.
