that still did not reproduce it but let me try beating on
that approach with more permutations.
BTW, another data-point that may help debug this: even with i40e,
if you use the "-o" option to the rds-stress invocation, there are
no problems: the "-o" option enforces uni-directional data
transfer, so one side is pure-Tx, other side is pure-Rx.
It is only when both sides simultaneously do both Tx and Rx
on the tcp socket that you see the issue. I dont know if
that provides any clues.
