From 054d1be48cc114c5d3bf87c7ebdf46703876e8d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Beilei Xing Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2018 11:18:12 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] net/i40e: fix Rx instability with vector mode Previously, there is instability during vector Rx if descriptor number is not power of 2, e.g. process hang and some Rx packets are unexpectedly empty. That's because vector Rx mode assumes Rx descriptor number is power of 2 when doing bit mask. This patch allows vector mode only when the number of Rx descriptor is power of 2.
