Sorry I missed that!
However, I'm not quite sure I understood you:
Step 5: enable multi queue in VM1 and VM2.
$ ethtool -L ethX combined 2
Note in this test case, only queue 1, i.e., secondary process can process
packets. To use queue 1, basically, we can run command like:
$ taskset -c 1 <commands>
Do you mean the secondary can't rx/tx pkts from/to the 2nd queue?
And you are asking the user to add "taskset -c 1" each time he
wants to run a command inside the VM?
