+Default Rx queue selection
+--------------------------
+In Multiple Receive Queues modes, ingress traffic may be redirected to specific
+Rx queue based on different programmable filters.
+
+When none of the filters is matched, the incoming frame will be redirected to
+the "Default Rx queue", which is Rx Queue 0 by default.
+
+For configurations where Queue 0 pair is used for high priority traffic (like
+AF_XDP), this may not be desirable. To address this, the driver provides the
+option to modify the default Rx queue via sysfs.
+
+A sysfs attribute "default_rx_queue" is available under /sys/devices. E.g.:
+/sys/devices/pci0000:00/.../default_rx_queue
+
+To check the currently configured default Rx queue:
+cat /sys/devices/pci0000:00/.../default_rx_queue
+
+To set the default queue to a desired value, for example 3:
+echo 3 > /sys/devices/pci0000:00/.../default_rx_queue
+
