[dpdk-dev] OVS-DPDK performance problem on ixgbe vector PMD

Hi, I've checked it further, based on Stephen's suggestion I've tried perf top as well. The results were the same, it spends a lot of time in that part of the code, and there are high number of branch load misses (BR_MISS_PRED_RETIRED) around there too. I've also started to strip down miniflow_

[dpdk-dev] BUG - KNI broken in 4.2 kernel

The root cause is RXPBSIZE is not right. RXPBSIZE of x550 is 384. It's different from other 10G NICs. We need
