VirtIO network not support RSS (Receive Side Scaling) in VM

[nilforoosh]

Hello every one. I add an Ubuntu VM in Proxmox and set its network card model as VirtIO (paravirtualized). Also the CPU type is `host` and the Proxmox server is HP DL380p Gen8 with Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 CPU.

In Ubuntu, there is an application that works with RSS (Receive Side Scaling), but when I run this application, the following error accured:

virtio_dev_configure(): RSS support requested but not supported by the device

How can I add RSS support to this machine ?

Maybe try with vmxnet3, it should support rss? Virtio-net should it support also, according to this patches https://lwn.net/Articles/880833/
