Hi,
I’m assigning a VF of an X520 card for DPDK/testpmd/OVS but it's not
accepting tagged VLAN packets (it does accept tag 0). Is this a known
bug/limitation of the 82599ES chipset?
This is how I've tested it:
$ echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:05\:00.0/sriov_numvfs
$driverctl -v set-override 0000:05:10.0 vfio-pci
$./testpmd -c 7 -n 4 --socket-mem 2048,0 -w 0000:05:10.0 -- \
--burst 64 -i --rxq=1 --txq=1 --rxd=4096 --txd=1024 \
—coremask=6 --auto-start --port-topology=chained
EAL: Detected 28 lcore(s)
EAL: Detected 1 NUMA nodes
EAL: Multi-process socket /var/run/dpdk/rte/mp_socket

I’m sending broadcast ARP packets:

No traffic is received, if you replace tag 10 with 0, packets are
received.
Note that this is a simple reproducer with testpmd, but it's reported as
part of an OVS integration. This works fine on the physical port, or
with a VF on an XL710 card.
Any input appreciated.
Thanks,
Eelco
