[dpdk-users] wrong core receive the package

[shengxiao qian]

Hi there;
    Our machine has 2 cpus（Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2630 v4 @ 2.20GHz）with
40 cores.
If the core num is less than or equal to 16. the application with dpdk
works fine.But if the core num more than 16.there is something wrong with
it.
    In our test scenario(more then 16 cores), server a is a tcp client and
server b is a tcp server. Server a sends a syn packet to server B with
core1, and server B returns a syn ack message to server a.Although the hash
value of these two packets is the same, syn ack packets are distributed to
server a other core(not the send core),Can anyone give some help?

NIC info：
 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network
Connection(recv 01)

I reconnect the nic to Linux and examine it with ethtool:

    unsigned i = 0;

    }


    if (rte_eth_dev_rss_reta_update(_port_idx, reta_conf,
_dev_info.reta_size)) {

        rte_exit(EXIT_FAILURE, "Port %d: Failed to update an RSS
indirection table", _port_idx);

    }


  }



is there anything wrong with the congigure?
