RIP: 0033:0x7f83fa7a39e0
This was caused by PF queue pile fragmentation due to
flow director VSI queue being placed right after main VSI.
Because of this main VSI was not able to resize its
queue allocation for XDP resulting in no queues allocated
for main VSI when XDP was turned on.
Fix this by always allocating last queue in PF queue pile
for a flow director VSI. |
