[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 00/11] support match on L3 fragmented packets

[Dekel Peled]

This series implements support of matching on packets based on the
fragmentation attribute of the packet, i.e. if packet is a fragment
of a larger packet, or the opposite - packet is not a fragment.

In ethdev, add API to support IPv6 extension headers, and specifically
the IPv6 fragment extension header item.
In MLX5 PMD, support match on IPv4 fragmented packets, IPv6 fragmented
packets, and IPv6 fragment extension header item.
Testpmd CLI is updated accordingly.
Documentation is updated accordingly.
