It was mentioned in the release meeting call that they are new regressions since 17.11.10-rc1 - these are the commits that were backported that changed drivers/mlx*: https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=17.11&id=60d0f2e079 https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=17.11&id=005b17cbab https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=17.11&id=4cd784b02d https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=17.11&id=569c98371e They seem quite innocous to me, but I might be wrong. Authors and reviewers CC'ed. - there's no "off_t" reference in MLX4 - the only flow change was this commit and it seems unrelated: https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=17.11&id=940d6c60d5748 So I'd imagine it could be some unrelated change, in the core libraries, that causes these issues. Would you be able to bisect the tree to see exactly which commits cause issues? Thanks! -- Kind regards, Luca Boccassi
