Dear all,

I am running VPP on a CPU with 2 sockets and 4 virtual cores. The startup
configuration is the following:

unix {
>   interactive
>   nodaemon
> }
>
> cpu {
>         main-core 0
> corelist-workers 2-3
> *workers 2*
> }
>
>  dpdk {
> dev 0000:07:00.0

       {
> num-rx-queues 2
> }
> dev 0000:07:00.1

socket-mem 1024,1024
> }


The thread placement is the following:

> Thread 1 (vpp_wk_0 at lcore 2):
>   *TenGigabitEthernet7/0/0 queue 0*
>   TenGigabitEthernet7/0/1 queue 0
> Thread 2 (vpp_wk_1 at lcore 3):
>  * TenGigabitEthernet7/0/0 queue 1*


So, I can see that RSS is working because the first queue of the first
interface is on lcore2 whereas the second queue is on lcore3.

I am running a simple L2-xconnect with the following command:

> set int l2 xconnect TenGigabitEthernet7/0/0 TenGigabitEthernet7/0/1



I am expecting the second thread actually working when the first cannot
handle all the traffic.

Therefore, I am saturating the RX bandwidth of TenGigabitEthernet7/0/0 sending
14 Mpps (packets of 64B).
I am receiving on TenGigabitEthernet7/0/1 only ~13Mpps which means that I
am not able to process ~ 1Mpps.

However, when I perform  "show run", the second thread does not work at all!

Am I missing something in the configuration of VPP or what do you think can
be the cause?

Thanks for the help :)

Best regards,
Alessio
