I've tried it over my setup with testpmd:
./build/app/dpdk-testpmd -n 4 -w :08:00.0 -- --mbcache=512 -i --nb-cores=27
--rxq=4 --txq=4 --rss-ip
testpmd> set verbose 1
testpmd> start
then tried to send two MPLS packets with different src IP:
packet1 = Ether()/MPLS()/IP(src='1.1.1.1')
packet2 = Ether()/MPLS()/IP(src='1.1.1.2')
and I see that both packets are being spread over the queues, see the bellow
testpmd dump output:
testpmd> port 0/queue 3: received 1 packets
src=00:00:00:00:00:00 - dst=FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF - type=0x8847 - length=60 -

first packet was received on queue 3 and the second one was received over queue
1,
by the way, this is with both 19.11.0 and v19.11.6

[dpdk-users] DPDK: MPLS packet processing
Hi All,
I am trying to build a multi-RX-queue dpdk program, using RSS to split the
incoming traffic into RX queues on a single port. Mellanox ConnectX-5 and
DPDK Version 19.11 is used for this purpose. It works fine when I use IP
over Ethernet packets as input. However when the packet contains IP over
MPLS over Ethernet, RSS does not seem to work. As a result, all packets
belonging to various flows (with different src & dst IPs, ports over MPLS)
are all sent into the same RX queue.
My queries are
1. Is there any parameter/techniques in DPDK to distribute MPLS packets to
multiple RX queues?
2. Is there any way to strip off MPLS tags (between Eth and IP) in
hardware, something like hw_vlan_strip?
My Port configuration is
const struct rte_eth_conf default_port_conf = {
.rxmode = {
.hw_vlan_strip = 0,/* VLAN strip enabled. */
.header_split = 0,/* Header Split disabled. */
.hw_ip_checksum = 0,/* IP checksum offload disabled. */
.hw_strip_crc = 0,/* CRC stripping by hardware disabled.
*/
},
.rx_adv_conf = {
.rss_conf = {
.rss_key = NULL,
.rss_key_len = 0,
.rss_hf = ETH_RSS_IP,
},
} };

Thanks and Regards
