[dpdk-dev] net/ena: traffic lock

[Rajesh Kumar]

Dpdk: 19.11

Driver: ena



During longevity(after 24+ hrs) testing at 10Gbps, one of tx-queue is
getting into unrecoverable state ( its not able to find enough
tx-descriptor nor its freeing up).



So for every tx-burst, eth_ena_xmit_pkts() neither finds free tx-descriptor
nor able to free txd (ena_com_tx_comp_req_id_get() is always returning
ENA_COM_TRY_AGAIN).



We see eth_ena_xmit_pkts() has been refactored in latest LTS version, is
there any related issue got fixed ? Can you help
