The setup is quite simple. I send broadcast traffic to the dut on which
I run l2fwd (with xdpsock) and expect the stats to increase. But after
4096 packets, the stats stop incrementing. And I see this issue only
with 64 byte packet and not with 1500 byte packets. I am suspecting
could be some race condition or some bug in our dma controller. I am
tracking this issue and post a fix for this separately.
