Hey Thomas,

Thank you for the comments.

The data-path focused flow rule management can manage flow rules in more
optimized way then tranditional one by using hits provided by

hits -> hints

application in initialization phase.

In addition to the current hints we have in port attr, more hints could
be proivded by application about it's behaviour.

it's -> its

One example is how the application do with the same flow:

flow -> flow rule ?

A. create/destroy flow on same queue but query flow on different queue
   or queue-less way (i.e, counter query)
B. All flow operations will be exactly on the same queue, by which PMD
   could be in more optimized way then A because resource could be
   isolated and access based on queue, without lock for example.

This patch add flag about above situation and could be extanded to cover

extended

more situations.

Don't use enum for bit flags.

I guess you mean "for a given flow rule"

strictlly -> _strictly_
