Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] doc: refer to the supported Field IDs for modify field API
Date: Thu,  8 Apr 2021 12:32:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210408123258.10452-1-akozyrev@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210331160028.21811-1-akozyrev@nvidia.com>

Fix the documentation about the MODIFY_FIELD RTE Flow action.
1. Include the rte_flow_field_id enumeration reference to point
to the full list of all supported Field IDs available.
2. Correct the formatting of the MODIFY_FIELD action and the
destination/source field definition tables.

Fixes: 73b68f4c54 ("ethdev: introduce generic modify flow action")
