Hello Gaetan,
in our case reta_size is required for RSS testing even if there
is no reta update and query API to estimate where a packet
should be delivered. It assumes that default reta spreads over
all Rx queue evenly. I.e. we need reta size and number of Rx
queues to built default reta.
May be it is really very testing specific, but IMO logical
anyway.
Andrew.
