There were some good comments already but only from people interested in Cavium, Mellanox and Intel devices. Please developers and maintainers from Amazon, Broadcom, Chelsio, Cisco, Netronome, QLogic and others, we are waiting your feedbacks. The intent is to be as generic as possible. But if unfortunately this new API do not interface well with the hardware you care of, it will be really harder to fix it later. Last question: can you commit to migrate your driver in the 16.11 or 17.02 timeframe? Please answer in the original thread, not this one. This is only an announce to get more attention on the thread "Generic flow director/filtering/classification API"
