This patch is forcing users to use deprecated actions (except from mlx). What about a slight change: 1- In this release, update header/document as 'RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD' is preferred way if supported. Instead of deprecating old ones. 2- Have an agreement with PMD maintainers to switch to new action before v22.11, and don't accept old action implementation in PMDs anymore. Based on agreement update 'deprecation.rst' in this release to note that old actions will be removed on v22.11. (It would be good to have a check to prevent old actions merged during that time.) 3- In v22.11, remove old actions, the PMDs that don't support MODIFY_FIELD action will lose the feature. What do you think? Andrew, Ajit, Somnath, Rahul, We need your confirmation for item (2) above, do you have any objection?
