Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 2/2] ethdev: fix metadata documentation
Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2018 09:22:00 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1540362120-14570-2-git-send-email-dekelp@mellanox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1540301331-51065-1-git-send-email-dekelp@mellanox.com>

Previous patch introduced the Tx metadata feature, with unnecessary
restrictions on data entry.

This fix updates the documentation, removing the data entry
restrictions on metadata item.

Fixes: aa0b9484eb5f ("ethdev: support metadata as flow rule criteria")
Cc: dekelp@mellanox.com
