[dpdk-dev] [RFC,v3] ethdev: extend RSS offload types

[simei]

From: Simei Su <simei.su at intel.com>

Make it easier to represent to define macro values as (1ULL << ###).

This RFC reserves several bits as input set selection from bottom
of the 64 bits. The flow type is combined with input set to
represent rss types.

for example:
    ETH_RSS_IPV4 | ETH_RSS_INSET_L3_SRC: hash on src ip address only
    ETH_RSS_IPV4_UDP | ETH_RSS_INSET_L4_DST: hash on src/dst IP and
				            dst UDP port
    ETH_RSS_L2_PAYLOAD | ETH_RSS_INSET_L2_DST: hash on dst mac address
