[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 01/25] ethdev: introduce generic flow API
Adrien Mazarguil

Fri Dec 16 17:24:58 CET 2016
This new API supersedes all the legacy filter types described in
rte_eth_ctrl.h. It is slightly higher level and as a result relies more on
PMDs to process and validate flow rules.
Benefits:
- A unified API is easier to program for, applications do not have to be
written for a specific filter type which may or may not be supported by
the underlying device.
- The behavior of a flow rule is the same regardless of the underlying
device, applications do not need to be aware of hardware quirks.
- Extensible by design, API/ABI breakage should rarely occur if at all.
- Documentation is self-standing, no need to look up elsewhere.
Existing filter types will be deprecated and removed in the near future.

+ * Although optional, applications are encouraged to group similar rules as

+ *
+ * If a packet is matched by several rules of a given group for a given
+ * priority level, the outcome is undefined. It can take any path, may be
+ * duplicated or even cause unrecoverable errors.
+ *
+ * Note that support for more than a single group and priority level is not
+ * guaranteed.
+ *
+ * Flow rules can apply to inbound and/or outbound traffic (ingress/egress).

+ * Matching pattern item definition.
+ *
+ * A pattern is formed by stacking items starting from the lowest protocol
+ * layer to match. This stacking restriction does not apply to meta items
+ * which can be placed anywhere in the stack without affecting the meaning
+ * of the resulting pattern.
+ *
+ * Patterns are terminated by END items.
+ *
+ * The spec field should be a valid pointer to a structure of the related
+ * item type. It may be set to NULL in many cases to use default values.
+ *
+ * Optionally, last can point to a structure of the same type to define an
+ * inclusive range. This is mostly supported by integer and address fields,
+ * may cause errors otherwise. Fields that do not support ranges must be set
+ * to 0 or to the same value as the corresponding fields in spec.
+ *
+ * By default all fields present in spec are considered relevant (see note
+ * below). This behavior can be altered by providing a mask structure of the
+ * same type with applicable bits set to one. It can also be used to
+ * partially filter out specific fields (e.g. as an alternate mean to match
+ * ranges of IP addresses).
+ *
+ * Mask is a simple bit-mask applied before interpreting the contents of
+ * spec and last, which may yield unexpected results if not used
+ * carefully. For example, if for an IPv4 address field, spec provides
+ * 10.1.2.3, last provides 10.3.4.5 and mask provides 255.255.0.0, the
+ * effective range becomes 10.1.0.0 to 10.3.255.255.
+ *
+ * Note: the defaults for data-matching items such as IPv4 when mask is not
+ * specified actually depend on the underlying implementation since only
