Thanks, I had validated the 'rx_drop_en' setting. It's worked.

You need to turn on the "drop enable" bit in your NIC configuration to allow packets for full queues to be dropped, allowing other queues to continue as normal. In DPDK this is set by the value "rx_drop_en" in the rx configuration. In the latest DPDK tree, you can see this value being set for the symmetric mp example application in: examples/multi_process/symmetric_mp/main.c Regards, /Bruce
