[dpdk-users] RTE-FLOW: PF vs PHY_PORT

[Vivek Sharma]

Hi all,

Rte-Flow distinguishes between RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_PF & RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_PHY_PORT and

                                               RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_PF & RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_PHY_PORT.


I am finding it difficult to justify the presence of both these types, when functionality & implementation wise, these look quite similar. I would really appreciate if you could illustrate the differences between above item & action types.

Thanks in advance,
Vivek Sharma
