From: Rory Sexton <rory.sex...@intel.com> The default traffic class in i40e is set to drop versus on ixgbe it isset to no drop. This means when packets build up in the RX SRAM on the NIC, they are dropped, and they do this when the SW descriptor rings fill up.
This patch changes this behaviour and our testing shows there are no drops as a result.
