Hi,
I'm trying to get my XL710 NIC to send packets to different queues but so far without any luck. I'm running Ubuntu with kernel version 4.16.1. I downloaded version 2.4.6 of the i40e driver from the Intel download center. Because my packets weren't arriving as expected I modified the driver to print the queue being cleaned and the incoming packets to dmesg. The commands I'm using to set up the rules are as follows:
sudo ethtool -N enp1s0f1 flow-type ip4 dst-ip 6.6.6.6 action 0
sudo ethtool -N enp1s0f1 flow-type ip4 dst-ip 6.6.6.7 action 1
ethtool -n enp1s0f1 confirms the rules have been set properly. However, when I check dmesg I can see the packets are not landing in the specified queues. I have tried different versions of the ethtool command such as -U instead of -N and tcp4 or udp4 instead of ip4. Any suggestions as to why this could happen?
