This patchset fixes a bunch of very old issues in flow management
in IXGBE driver, such as:
- storing process-local pointers in shared memory
- incorrect L4 protocol matching for FDIR
- wrong handling of SCTP flow items
- reading stale FDIR state after flow destroy/flush
- storing all flows in global lists
In addition, some cleanup is also performed - refactors, moving
things around to avoid accessing process-local state, and
writing read-only values at init instead of deep in FDIR.
Finally, FDIR was also rejecting protocol-only matches for TCP
and UDP, these are now supported.
Depends on flow dump patchset: https://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=38016
