We construct packets and send the packet to HW  to create flow director rule for GTP-C and
GTP-U. Actually I didn’t get error info with 0x30. And in my test, GTP-C packets can hit  GTP-C
pctype rule. Will try 0x32 later.

Just for constructing a GTP packet to create a fdir rule for one pctype, can use other values except 0xFF.

Yes. But the GTP profile for i40e didn't support response message.

For the GTP profile, there're 4 pctypes for GTP packets: GTPC, GTPU, GTPIPV4, and GTPIPV6.
HW parse which pctype the GTP packets belonge to.
We construct packet to create a fdir rule for one pctype, after that, all packets whose
pctype matches the rule's pctype will hit the rule.

Same with above.
