Hi Christian, Thanks for your question. Yes, at the moment this configuration is forbidden for the AF_XDP PMD. One socket is created for each pair of rx and tx queues. However maybe this is an unnecessary restriction of the PMD. It is indeed possible to create a socket with either one rxq or one txq. I will put looking into the feasibility of enabling this in the PMD on my backlog. In the meantime, one workaround you could try would be to create an even number of rxq and txqs but steer all traffic to the first rxq using some NIC filtering eg. tc.
