In rare cases, evicting a hardware-accelerated ePVA flow might fail. Under normal conditions, this flow eventually idles out of the ePVA, but if traffic happens to be generated over the flow, then it can stay in the ePVA indefinitely, even if there is no software connection context for this connection.
A connection becomes stuck in the ePVA. Traffic might be disrupted if tmm restarts.
A virtual server using a FastL4 profile.
Disable hardware acceleration.
This release has updated the process for evicting a connection from the ePVA.
