From: Chas Williams <chas3@att.com>
Some PMDs, especially ones with vector receives, require a minimum number
of receive buffers in order to receive any packets. If the first slave
read leaves less than this number available, a read from the next slave
may return 0 implying that the slave doesn't have any packets which
results in skipping over that slave as the next active slave.
To fix this, implement round robin for the slaves during receive that
is only advanced to the next slave at the end of each receive burst.
This should also provide some additional fairness in processing in
bond_ethdev_rx_burst as well.

It is true not only in case of 0.
It makes sense that the first polling slave gets the majority part of the burst while the others just get smaller part
I suggest to rephrase to the general issue .

It doesn't happen for the 802.3ad burst routines in general. If you
run out of buffers
then you don't advance to the next slave and that slave picks up where
you left off
during the next rx burst. If some slave is attempting to do this, it
will consume all
the buffers and you will be at the next slave for the next rx and all
is well. There are
just some odd corner cases, where you read just slow (or fast?) enough
that the first
slave leaves just a few buffers. But reading the next slave results
in a 0 (because
of the vector RX), and you don't loop back around to the first slave.
So next time
around you start back at the troublesome slave.
The fix for the other RX burst routines is just completeness.

Some PMDs, especially ones with vector receives, require a minimum number
of receive buffers in order to receive any packets. If the first slave
read leaves less than this number available, a read from the next slave
may return 0 implying that the slave doesn't have any packets which
results in skipping over that slave as the next active slave.
To fix this, implement round robin for the slaves during receive that
is only advanced to the next slave at the end of each receive burst.
This is also done to provide some additional fairness in processing in
other bonding RX burst routines as well.
