That's only 71 lines but I could make 10 comments.
I'm fixing spacing, alignment, sorting, etc while pulling next-net,
but it would have been more confortable if more attention was paid
by the author and the reviewers.


I have a question though (it could be fixed in a later patch):

> +struct rte_flow_item_tx_queue {
> +	/** Tx queue number that packet is being transmitted */

This field is used with host endianness, right?

> +static const struct rte_flow_item_tx_queue rte_flow_item_tx_queue_mask = {
> +	.tx_queue = RTE_BE16(0xffff),
> +};

So why using RTE_BE16 to set a field which is not specifically big endian?
(not talking about the fact that 0xffff is the same no matter the endianness,
and not talking about the fact that it is better to use UINT16_MAX).
