The key questions are:
* What is your kernel version?
* Does it work in generic mode?
* Does it work if iperf generates UDP traffic?
ex. iperf3 -c 10.1.1.1 -t 3600 -u -b 10G/64 -l 1460
* It seems like a ring breakage or a umem memory leak.
So, what are the afxdp related coverage counters?
* Does OVS forward packets, i.e. if there something received/sent?
