ESXi 6.7 PV mode guest VM DPDK vmxnet3 RSS issue

Hi,

I'm using ESXi-6.7, in which create a Linux guest-VM in PV-mode(using ixgben PF on vSwitch, with RSS enabled on "ixgben").

In my Linux guest-VM, using DPDK PMD with "net_vmxnet3" RSS enabled. But, when i pump the UDP traffic on to this guest-VM, seeing all the packets where coming on single queue only out of 4-configured queues.

Does anybody observed similar UDP packets RSS issues using this "vmxnet3" DPDK PMD ?  Any Fix found on this issue ?

Is this issue on ESXi vSwitch Or guest-VM "vmxnet3" DPDK PMD ?

Thanks,

Madhukar.
