Description
The behavior occurs on Linux 4.19.124-RT,
UDP works fine, on TCP the bandwidth drops to zero after few seconds.
Ethernet driver is virtual driver between to PCIe machines.
The driver is quiet stable, and no observed problems with software (scp, ssh, etc)
No packet drops on the Ethernet driver.
I would love to understand why iperf3 stops sending packets, is there a way to enable more debugging, or somewhere I could look to debug it further ?
