[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/5] introduce changes to support flow scaling

[Venkat Duvvuru <venkatkumar.duvvuru@broadcom.com>]

This patchset introduces changes to the action record allocation, flow
database entry deletion, and hw flow cache updates.  Action record
allocation now allows the actions to scale with the flows.
Additionally, resources attached to a flow database entry are now
correctly released when the critical resource has not been added to
the flow.  Finally, the hw flow cache has a timer to periodically
invalidate flow entries.

  net/bnxt: ulp modifications for handling actions/index tables
  net/bnxt: ulp must set hw flow cache timer when allocating table scope

Shahaji Bhosle (1):
  net/bnxt: add truflow flush-timer to alloc table scope API
