[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/3] ethdev: add flow api actions to modify IP addresses

Rahul Lakkireddy rahul.lakkireddy at chelsio.com
Sat Oct 6 17:41:58 CEST 2018


Add actions:
- SET_IPV4_SRC - set a new IPv4 source address.
- SET_IPV4_DST - set a new IPv4 destination address.
- SET_IPV6_SRC - set a new IPv6 source address.
- SET_IPV6_DST - set a new IPv6 destination address.

Original work by Shagun Agrawal

v2:
- Rebased to tip.
- Removed adding actions to app/test-pmd/config.c, to sync with
  rte_flow_conv() changes.

v1 changes since RFC v2:
- Updated comments, help messages, and doc to indicate that IP/TCP/UDP
  of the outermost headers are modified.
- Updated comments and doc to indicate that a corresponding valid flow
  pattern item must be specified to offload corresponding header rewrite
  action.
- Updated release notes.
