This is only for the egress direction. For ingress, the receive queue index will be part of the actions with ACTION QUEUE or RSS and there is no needs to match. By adding this flow item, it will be easy for the application to create some wildcard rules to distribute the egress traffic for the further handling. Normally, all the traffic from software to wire will have the same wildcard rule. If the packets need to be handled in different ways, packets' headers and metadata, etc. will be used for matching. But in some cases, for example: 1. Packets from different TX queues will have different next common behaviors. 2. Hairpin TX traffic should have different behavior from software egress traffic. Matching on the TX queue will help to reduce the rules number and simplify the rules management. The support for this new item will be decided by the PMD driver and the capacity of the NIC.
