Hello Asaf,
I am currently working on forwarding IQ samples from EttusResearch USRP
n320 SDR receiver to Nvidia GPU (via GPUDirect RDMA) with DPDK.
We are using Connectx-5 NICs.

USRP uses CHDR network protocol (
https://files.ettus.com/manual_archive/release_003_009_000/html/page_rtp.html)
over UDP for CONTROL and DATA planes. CHDR is very similar to eCPRI,
supported via DPDK flex item.
I am currently working on UHD driver
(https://github.com/EttusResearch/uhd) modification of
to split CONTROL and DATA plane CHDR flows to CPU and GPU respectively with
DPDK flow API via distinct HW queues and mempools.
CHDR header contains packet type field to separate these streams using RAW
or FLEX items...

Currently, DPDK mlx5 PMD for Connectx-5 NICs does not implement flex and
raw items.
The absence of these functions does not allow us to solve our problem.
