My workflow. * kill keepalived, public VIP's gets removed. * restart HAproxy with onload (no errors here) * start keepalived, public VIP's gets added. * traffic starts to flow in and errors start appearing almost immediately. And driver and firmware is latest. Currently I've have not set RSS, which means it creates one queue per core, in my case 4 per port. And I assign affinity to core 0+1, haproxy gets core 2+3.
