> With mlx5 it is also possible to offload a limited set of flow rules to the mlxsw
> (or E-switch) using the same DPDK flow commands.
> A 'transfer' attribute was added to the flow rule creation command in order

> With the addition to the PMD of E-switch configuration via DR (direct verbs

> instead of using TC-Flower messages.
> Doing so will allow us to remove the TCF support and the dependency of
> libmnl from the PMD.
> The purpose of this RFC is to propose configuring the E-switch flow filtering

> dependency of the PMD in libmnl.
> As for today VLAN insertion or removal is not supported in DR, this support
> will be added in separate commits.
