[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 06/41] pipeline: add SWX pipeline action

Thu Sep 10 17:26:10 CEST 2020


Add SWX actions that are dynamically-defined through instructions as
opposed to pre-defined. The actions are subroutines of the pipeline
program that triggered by table lookup. The input arguments are the
action data from the table entry (format defined by struct), the
headers and meta-data are in/out.
