It works for me although I am on ubuntu 1804 VM. Your statement is unclear to
me if your problem is strictly related to more than 4 rx-queues or not when you
say
“but when i try to associate more than 4 num-rx-queues i get error”
Does it work fine when you reduce the number of rx-queues less than 4?

Subject: [vpp-dev] vmxnet3 rx-queue error "vmxnet3 failed to activate dev error
1" #vmxnet3 #ipsec
VPP IPsec responder on ESXI VM RHEL 7.6
Is there a limitation on the number of num-tx-queues and num-rx-queues we can
associate with vmxnet3? I have 12 worker threads running but when i try to
associate more than 4 num-rx-queues i get error saying "vmxnet3 failed to
activate dev error 1" ....
vppctl create interface vmxnet3 0000:13:00.0 rx-queue-size 2048 tx-queue-size
2048 num-tx-queues 2 num-rx-queues 4 bind
Reference:
https://vpp.flirble.org/master/db/df1/clicmd_src_plugins_vmxnet3.html
create interface vmxnet3 <pci-address> [rx-queue-size <size>] [tx-queue-size
<size>] [num-tx-queues <number>] [num-rx-queues <number>] [bind] [gso].
Thank you,
Ravin
