[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ixgbe/base: fix VF multi-queue failure

[Thomas Monjalon]

2016-03-30 10:46, Wenzhuo Lu:
> When starting testpmd with multiple queues on a ixgbe VF
> port, it failed with this printing, "nb_rxq(4) is greater
> than max_rx_queues(1)".
> 
> The root cause is the VF doesn't get the right max rx queue
> number from PF and it uses the default value 1.
> VF max rx queue number is set by PF through mailbox messages.
> The message for this setting only supports version 1.1. As
> message version is updated to 1.2, VF cannot parse the rx queue
> number setting message correctly.
> 
> This patch raise a specific base code update for this issue.
> 
> Fixes: 72dec9e37a84 ("ixgbe: support multicast promiscuous mode on VF")
