Hi. New info on my problem.
"Tx descriptor is not done" error messages and tx queues stopped transmitting packets showed up after I upgraded dpdk from 16.07 to 17.02.1 version and switched from using standalone ports to using the bonding driver. Since then I've been trying to find a cause of the problems in the bonding driver only and haven't thought that upgrading dpdk could also be a reason for my problems. Today I rolled back dpdk version to 16.07 and all problems have gone. I have “tx descriptor is not done” errors only on one machine and I can’t reproduce them on another machine that has different CPU and motherboard model. Is there any way to find out what is causing tx queue to stop transmitting packet in the newer dpdk version? I am ready to execute any necessary tests and provide more information on my environment, but I need some guidance or hints where should I look more carefully? 2017-07-16 14:51 GMT+03:00 Alexander Kiselev <kisele...@gmail.com>: > Hi. > > Exсume me for bothering you here in the dev list.
