[dpdk-users] Max-rx-queues on bnxt VF shows as 1

[madhukar mythri]

Hi,

When i ran the 'testpmd' using the latest DPDK-19.08(or even with
DPDK-18.11.2), we are seeing only single Rx-queue available on the bnxt VF
device.
Does any workaround/fix available to increase upto two queues.
The bnxt device firmware version is: 1.8.4.

Here is the output of the 'testpmd':
