Thanks Antonio for the ping, this update was lost in my PTO :-/

But most important - hi Jan!!!
Another case of the small world effect :-)
Feel free to catch "cpaelzer" on IRC all around on Ubuntu/virtualization/dpdk 
channels.

About the bug:
After sorting out primary and secondary queues and their assignment to the 
devices (not 100% sure but working better now) and upgrading to the most recent 
kernels I no more get the translation fault, but a more sane error message.

With that I could use up to 7 rx queues, if I use more I get an error like this:
  dpdk|EMER|Cannot assign sufficient number of secondary queues to primary VF3

And since none of us can change this HW limitation that is not a bug,
but just unfortunate and a bit misleading.

While I'd appreciate if there would be a better way to see which of all
your VFs to use other than trial-and-error (Why on earth is it
0002:01:00.[45] out of 0002:0[0-3]:00.[0-7]) I think the bug itself is
solved by understanding more of the limitations.

Therefore setting bug status to invalid.

** Changed in: dpdk (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
