[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/2] net/mlx5: fix flow queues array allocation

Tue Apr 11 17:21:51 CEST 2017


Flow queues array offset is not properly computed causing all sorts of
issues.  Address it by making the rte_flow structure less complex.

Fixes: 360663e1df46 ("net/mlx5: prepare support for RSS action rule")
