[dpdk-users] Trying to use ACL with uint64

Hi,
I'm trying to use rte_acl to match range of uint64_t numbers, but it seems that uint64_t is not working well.
it looks as if it match only 32 bits instead of full 64 bits value as it should.
I didn't find any example that using uint64_t, but according to the code comment it should work:
uint8_t size; /**< size of field 1,2,4, or 8. */
Does anyone know if it should work? Is there any specific configuration for 64bits?
Thanks
I'm running on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS using dpdk 17.11
This is filed definitions:
struct rte_acl_field_def acl_fields[] = {
{
.type = RTE_ACL_FIELD_TYPE_BITMASK,
.size = sizeof(uint8_t),
.field_index = 0,
.input_index = 0,
.offset = 0,
},
{
.type = RTE_ACL_FIELD_TYPE_RANGE,
.size = sizeof(uint64_t),
.field_index = 1,
.input_index = 1,
.offset = offsetof(struct gtp_data, num),
},
};
struct acl_data {
uint64_t num;
};
For testing I tried to add number 0:
rules[0].field[1].value.u64 = 0;
rules[0].field[1].mask_range.u64 = 0;
rules[0].data.userdata = 1
rules[0].data.priority = 1;
rules[0].data.category_mask = 1;
when I check with uint64_t(0) I get match. However, If I do the following:
acl_data.num= 0;
uint64_t tmp = htonl(0x12345678);
acl_data.num |= ( tmp << 32);
and calling rte_acl_classify with acl_data I'm still getting a match.
Only if I change the first 32 bits I will get no-match
