Hi All, I have 4 port card X710 card(i40e driver), on 3 of them i have configured SRIOV and using one physical port bound to ovs-dpdk. I am observing some strange behaviour with performance. If i run traffic on SRIOV VFS and DPDK port , performance is better on SRIOV VFS.
If I remove DPDK port and run traffic, SRIOV VFS starts dropping the packets. Card is running in multimode-driver , 3 kernel and 1 OVS-DPDK. What exactly OVS-DPDK(i40epmd)/DPDK sets in the global pnics card registers that is causing better performance of the overall card ? -- Thanks and Regards, Pra -- Thanks and Regards, Pradeep.K.S.
