Hi, The patch mentioned is merged to the 18.11 branch in dpdk-stable repo and part of 18.11.10-rc1, so expected to be in 18.11.10. ETA 28th September. In case it's already fixed, you can try the 18.11.10-rc1 release. These netvsc backports were added since 18.11.9. The corresponding dpdk main commit id's are in the full log. $ git log --oneline v18.11.9..HEAD . 363bdf0f49 net/netvsc: fix chimney index 5b3a327709 net/netvsc: fix crash during Tx 77cf88c0c6 net/netvsc: fix underflow when Rx external mbuf 59257aaaa1 net/netvsc: do not spin forever waiting for reply The list of fixes that were tagged for stable but not backported is here: http://inbox.dpdk.org/stable/20200901100115.72365-1-ktray...@redhat.com/ are all good but any larger packets/fragmented packets are getting dropped after some time. As soon as we start to receive the transmit completion event NVS_TYPE_RNDIS_ACK as failed, packets with size greater than HN_TXCOPY_THRESHOLD starts to drop and never recovers. Packets less than HN_TXCOPY_THRESHOLD works properly there after though. Any idea why this is happening and is there is some fix which is already there which is done after 18.11.9 release ? Maybe you can bisect the 18.11 branch to find where it stops working, there is only ~10 netvsc commits between 18.11.6 and 18.11.9. The release notes [1] or git history will tell you which commits are in which releases. Bear in mind that some commits were rebased for 18.11, so if you find the offending commit, you might want to check that it was correctly backported too. Kevin.
