Implement a generic copy flow API to allow copying of an arbitrary
header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) to another item.

This generic copy mechanism removes the necessity to implement a
separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future. A user-provided value can be used from a
specified tag/metadata or directly copied from other packet field.

The number of bits to copy as well as the offset to start from can
be specified to allow a partial copy or copy into an arbitrary
place in a packet for greater flexibility.

RFC: http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

Hi Alexander,

I guess that the test-pmd part will be available later right?

Since the question why you are using enum and not just offset from 
the start of the packet, was discussed and raised by number of people it will be best
if it will appear in the commit log, at least the advantages to this implementation.

For tag I think you should also use the index right?

Please specify  what means index 0 /1 ... 0 is outer most? Inner most?
You can look at the RSS level for reference.
I think it will be best to use the same values.

What happens if we want to copy between different sizes?
for example copy IPV6 src to number of tags? I assume we will be using offset and
split the copy command to number of actions right?

I don't think this name is good since it not rte_flow_item this is just internal enumeration
for this action.

Why use 32 bits? Since this copy only one register with max len of 32 bit.
The max offset can 31? Same for the index.

Implement a generic copy rte flow API as described in RFC:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

This API allows copying a specified number of bits from a source
header field to a destination header field. Tag, mark or metadata
can also be used as a source/destination to allow saving/overwriting
an arbitrary header field with a user-specified value.

Outermost/innermost packet fields (and Tag array elements) are
accessible via the index parameter to facilitate the modification
of encapsulated packet header fields. The offset parameter provides
the flexibility to copy/set any part of a packet starting the
specified packet header field.

v1: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/86173/
v2: Added testpmd support.

Implement a generic copy flow API to allow copying of an arbitrary
header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) to another item.

This generic copy mechanism removes the necessity to implement a
separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future. A user-provided value can be used from a
specified tag/metadata or directly copied from other packet field.

The number of bits to copy as well as the offset to start from can
be specified to allow a partial copy or copy into an arbitrary
place in a packet for greater flexibility.

RFC: http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

Add support for the RTE_FLOW_ACTION_COPY_ITEM to the testpmd.
Implement CLI to create the copy_item action and supply all the
needed parameters to copy an arbitrary packet field (as well as
mark, tag or metadata) into another item.

Example of the flow is the following:
flow create 0 egress group 1 pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
     actions copy_item dst_type tag dst_index 0 dst_offset 8
     src_type gtp_teid src_index 0 src_offset 0 width 32 / end

This flow copies 32 bits from the first Tag in the Tags array
into the outermost GTP TEID packet header field. 8 bits of the Tag
are skipped as indicated by the dst_offset action parameter.

Right, index is here to access any element in the tag array in addition to
outermost or any inner packet header fields. Will specify explicitly in the doc.

0 is outer most, of course,  I'Il add some clarification about that.

That is the correct understanding. We can utilize 4 copy_item actions in this case to
copy 32-bits of an IPv6 SRC at the time (specifying different offsets) to 4 different Tag fields.

Will rename to rte_flow_action_copy_item_id in v3? Is this ok?

This extends the flexibility of the copy API. This way you can modify any place
in a packet as you desire by specifying RTE_FLOW_ITEM_NONE to start with the
beginning of a packet and choosing a particular offset value to point in a desired place.
And since packet length can be pretty big we need to accommodate this.
Do you think this flexibility is not necessary and we should bound the offset to the
length of a selected packet field only? Index is 32 bit for the same field in RSS.

Again, to make API as generic as possible in case there will be a PMD driver
that can copy a huge chunk of a packet into the another place of this packet.
What is your opinion on that?

Not necessary, like I said please look at the RSS, 0 can mean the inner most.

Nice idea but then I would add ITEM_OFFSET or something

This is a long command, and for most cases holds to many extra values.
I suggest to allow default values, meaning that the application must
say the src and the dest fields but all the rest of the information can be
extract from those two parameters (offset =0, len(field_type).
If the user request he can add those parameters for more control.

On second thought I think a better name should be:
rte_flow_field_id - I removed  the copy since we may use it in other actions
for example set/add

Then I would prefer sticking to the original rte_flow_item_id naming.
It allows room for anyone to use it as a general enum and incrorporates tag/metadata
and other future extensions, not just packet fields.

Implement a generic copy rte flow API as described in RFC:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

This API allows copying a specified number of bits from a source
header field to a destination header field. Tag, mark or metadata
can also be used as a source/destination to allow saving/overwriting
an arbitrary header field with a user-specified value.

Outermost/innermost packet fields (and Tag array elements) are
accessible via the level parameter to facilitate the modification
of encapsulated packet header fields. The offset parameter provides
the flexibility to copy/set any part of a packet starting the
specified packet header field.

v1: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/86173/
v2: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/86369/
Added testpmd support.
v3:
Made dst_type and src_type only mandatory parameters.

Implement a generic copy flow API to allow copying of an arbitrary
header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) to another item.

This generic copy mechanism removes the necessity to implement a
separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future. A user-provided value can be used from a
specified tag/metadata/mark or directly copied from another packet field.

The item ID is used to specify the desired source/destination packet
field in order to simplify the API for various encapsulation models.
Specifying the packet field ID with the needed encapsulation level
is able to quickly get a packet field for any inner packet header.

Alternatively, the special ID (ITEM_START) can be used to point to the
very beginning of a packet. This ID in conjunction with the offset
parameter provides great flexibility to copy/modify any part of a packet
 as needed.

The number of bits to copy as well as the offset to start from can
be specified to allow a partial copy or dividing a big packet field
into multiple small items (let's say copying 128 bits of IPv6 to 4 tags).

RFC: http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

+Any arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag values)

+- ``1`` requests access to the outermost packet encapsulation level.
+- ``2`` and subsequent values requests access to the specified packet
+  encapsulation level, from outermost to innermost (lower to higher values).
+  For the tag array ``level`` translates directly into the array index.
+
+``offset`` specifies the number of bits to skip from an item start.
+That allows performing a partial copy of the needed part or to divide a big
+packet field into multiple smaller items. Alternatively, ``offset`` allows

+arbitrary place in a packet essentially providing a way to copy any part of
+a packet to any other part of it if supported by a underlying PMD driver.

Add support for the RTE_FLOW_ACTION_COPY_ITEM to the testpmd.
Implement CLI to create the copy_item action and supply all the
needed parameters to copy an arbitrary packet field (as well as
mark, tag or metadata) into another item.

Example of the flow is the following:
flow create 0 egress group 1 pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
     actions copy_item dst_type tag dst_level 0 dst_offset 8
     src_type gtp_teid src_level 0 src_offset 0 width 32 / end

This flow copies 32 bits from the first Tag in the Tags array
into the outermost GTP TEID packet header field. 8 bits of the
Tag are skipped as indicated by the dst_offset action parameter.

dst_type and src_type are the only mandatory parameters to
specify. Levels and offset are 0 by default if they are not
overriden by a user. The width parameter gets the smallest width
from the source and destination sizes if it is not specified.

Implement a generic copy rte flow API as described in RFC:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

This API allows copying a specified number of bits from a source
header field to a destination header field. Tag, mark or metadata
can also be used as a source/destination to allow saving/overwriting
an arbitrary header field with a user-specified value.

Outermost/innermost packet fields (and Tag array elements) are
accessible via the level parameter to facilitate the modification
of encapsulated packet header fields. The offset parameter provides
the flexibility to copy/set any part of a packet starting the
specified packet header field.

---
v1: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/86173/
v2: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/86369/
Added testpmd support.
v3: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/86442/
Made dst_type, src_type and width only mandatory parameters.
v4:
Renamed action to TE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_COPY_FIELD.

Implement a generic copy flow API to allow copying of an arbitrary
header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) to another field.

This generic copy mechanism removes the necessity to implement a
separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future. A user-provided value can be used from a
specified tag/metadata/mark or directly copied from another packet field.

The field ID is used to specify the desired source/destination packet
field in order to simplify the API for various encapsulation models.
Specifying the packet field ID with the needed encapsulation level
is able to quickly get a packet field for any inner packet header.

Alternatively, the special ID (ITEM_START) can be used to point to the
very beginning of a packet. This ID in conjunction with the offset
parameter provides great flexibility to copy/modify any part of a packet
 as needed.

The number of bits to copy as well as the offset to start from can
be specified to allow a partial copy or dividing a big packet field
into multiple small fields (let's say copying 128 bits of IPv6 to 4 tags).

  To: dev; +Cc: viacheslavo, orika, thomas, ferruh.yigit, andrew.rybchenko

Add support for the RTE_FLOW_ACTION_COPY_FIELD to the testpmd.
Implement CLI to create the copy_field action and supply all the
needed parameters to copy an arbitrary packet field (as well as
mark, tag or metadata) into another field.

Example of the flow is the following:
flow create 0 egress group 1 pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
     actions copy_field dst_type tag dst_level 0 dst_offset 8
     src_type gtp_teid src_level 0 src_offset 0 width 32 / end

This flow copies 32 bits from the first Tag in the Tags array
into the outermost GTP TEID packet header field. 8 bits of the
Tag are skipped as indicated by the dst_offset action parameter.

dst_type and src_type are the only mandatory parameters to
specify. Levels and offset are 0 by default if they are not
overridden by a user. The width parameter gets the smallest width
from the source and destination sizes if it is not specified.

Overall it is a good improvement.

I think, if we add transform "op" here then it can be more generic. In
other words, A generic packet transform and copy operation is just one
of the operations.
ie.. making it as rte_flow_action_xform_item and introduce COPY, ADD,
SUB, etc transform along with existing rte_flow_action_copy_item
fields.

It may useful for expressing P4 packet transforms to rte_flow.

The current generation of Marvell HW does not have COPY transform so I
am leaving suggestions to vendors with this HW capablity.

Lest have dst, src, width, op members,
and change the action name to rte_flow_action_modify_field()

also lest add new field name immediate  so the copy can be used as set.
(copy of an immediate value is a set)

Possible op = copy / add / sub

I think if we remove the order of actions then it is possible to use the same struct
both for the src and the dst. What do you think? (see my comment below)

You are forcing that the first parameter will be the source, what do you think about
removing this limitation?

Thank you, Jerin, for a great idea. I'm issuing a v4 patch with generic modify_field design.

This is done intentionally so user can get away without specifying all the mandatory
parameters. That saves us a trouble to validate if they are present or not later.

I'm forcing the first parameter to be the destination, then the source, then the width.
This way I can be sure that all of them are specified when the flow is created.

Implement a generic modify rte flow API as described in RFC:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

This API allows modifying a destination header field with data from
a source header field. Number of bits to use from source is specified.
Tag, mark or metadata can also be used as a source/destination to
allow saving/overwriting an arbitrary header field with a user-specified value.
Alternatively, an immediate value can be provided by a user as a source.

Outermost/innermost packet fields (and Tag array elements) are
accessible via the level parameter to facilitate the modification
of encapsulated packet header fields. The offset parameter provides
the flexibility to copy/set any part of a packet starting the
specified packet header field.

---
v1: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/86173/
Initial design.
v2: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/86369/
Added testpmd support.
v3: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/86442/
Made dst_type, src_type and width only mandatory parameters.
v4: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/86488/
Renamed action to RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_COPY_FIELD.
v5: 
Redesigned as RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD.

Implement the generic modify flow API to allow manipulations on
an arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) using
data from another field or a user-specified value.

This generic modify mechanism removes the necessity to implement
a separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future. A user-provided value can be used from a
specified packet field/tag/metadata/mark/memory location or directly
provided by a user.

Supported operation are:
- mov: copy data from source to destination.
- add: integer addition, stores the result in destination.
- sub: integer subtraction, stores the result in destination.

The field ID is used to specify the desired source/destination packet
field in order to simplify the API for various encapsulation models.
Specifying the packet field ID with the needed encapsulation level
is able to quickly get a packet field for any inner packet header.

Alternatively, the special ID (ITEM_START) can be used to point to
the very beginning of a packet. This ID in conjunction with the
offset parameter provides great flexibility to copy/modify any part of
a packet as needed.

The number of bits to use from a source as well as the offset can be
be specified to allow a partial copy or dividing a big packet field
into multiple small fields (e.g. copying 128 bits of IPv6 to 4 tags).

An immediate value (or pointer to it) can be specified instead of the
level and the offset for the special FIELD_VALUE ID (or FIELD_POINTER).
Can be used as a source only, in case of user-provided values.

    +---------------+
 
+Action: ``MODIFY_FIELD``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Modify ``dst`` field according to ``op`` selected (move, addition,
+substraction) with ``width`` bits of data from ``src`` field.
+
+Any arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag values)
+can be used as both source and destination fields as set by ``field``.
+The immediate value ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` (or a pointer to it
+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER``) is allowed as a source only.
+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_START`` is used to point to the beginning of a packet.
+
+``op`` selects the operation to perform on a destination field.
+- ``mov`` copies the data from ``src`` field to ``dst`` field.
+- ``add`` adds together ``dst`` and ``src`` and stores the result into ``dst``.
+- ``sub`` substracts ``src`` from ``dst`` and stores the result into ``dst``
+
+ ``width`` defines a number of bits to use from ``src`` field.
+
+ ``level`` is used to access any packet field on any encapsulation level
+ as well as any tag element in the tag array.
+- ``0`` means the default behaviour. Depending on the packet type, it can
+  mean outermost, innermost or anything in between.
+- ``1`` requests access to the outermost packet encapsulation level.
+- ``2`` and subsequent values requests access to the specified packet
+  encapsulation level, from outermost to innermost (lower to higher values).
+  For the tag array ``level`` translates directly into the array index.
+
+``offset`` specifies the number of bits to skip from a field's start.
+That allows performing a partial copy of the needed part or to divide a big
+packet field into multiple smaller fields. Alternatively, ``offset`` allows
+going past the specified packet field boundary to copy a field to an
+arbitrary place in a packet, essentially providing a way to copy any part of
+a packet to any other part of it if supported by an underlying PMD driver.
+
+``value`` sets an immediate value to be used as a source or points to a
+location of the value in memory. It is used instead of ``level`` and ``offset``
+for ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` and ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER`` respectively.

From: Alexander Kozyrev @ 2021-01-15 15:42 UTC (permalink / raw)
  To: dev
  Cc: viacheslavo, orika, thomas, ferruh.yigit, andrew.rybchenko, jerinjacobk

Add support for the RTE_FLOW_ACTION_MODIFY_FIELD to the testpmd.
Implement CLI to create the modify_field action and supply all the
needed parameters to modify an arbitrary packet field (as well as
mark, tag or metadata) with data from another field or immediate
value.

Example of the flow is the following:
flow create 0 egress group 1 pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
  actions modify_field op mov dst_type tag dst_level 2 dst_offset 8
          src_type gtp_teid src_level 0 src_offset 0 width 16 / end

This flow copies 16 bits from the second Tag in the Tags array
into the outermost GTP TEID packet header field. 8 bits of the
Tag are skipped as indicated by the dst_offset action parameter.

op, dst_type, src_type and width are the mandatory parameters to
specify. Levels and offset are 0 by default if they are not
overridden by a user. The operation can be mov, add or sub.

Signed-off-by: Alexander Kozyrev <akozyrev@nvidia.com>

---
v1: Initial implementation.
v2: Made dst_type, src_type and width only mandatory parameters.
v3: Reworked to accomodate API change from copy_field to modify_field.

I think  mov is not the best option, since we the value in src stays
I think copy or set will be better.
If you change it feel free to add my ack.

Implement a generic modify rte flow API as described in RFC:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

This API allows modifying a destination header field with data from
a source header field. Number of bits to use from the source is specified.
Tag, Mark or Metadata can also be used as a source/destination to allow
saving/overwriting an arbitrary header field with a user-specified value.
Alternatively, an immediate value can be provided by a user as a source.

Outermost/innermost packet fields (and Tag array elements) are
accessible via the level parameter to facilitate the modification
of encapsulated packet header fields. The offset parameter provides
the flexibility to copy/set any part of a packet starting the
specified packet header field.

Implement the generic modify flow API to allow manipulations on
an arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) using
data from another field or a user-specified value.
This generic modify mechanism removes the necessity to implement
a separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future.

Supported operation are:
- set: copy data from source to destination.
- add: integer addition, stores the result in destination.
- sub: integer subtraction, stores the result in destination.

The field ID is used to specify the desired source/destination packet
field in order to simplify the API for various encapsulation models.
Specifying the packet field ID with the needed encapsulation level
is able to quickly get a packet field for any inner packet header.

Alternatively, the special ID (ITEM_START) can be used to point to
the very beginning of a packet. This ID in conjunction with the
offset parameter provides great flexibility to copy/modify any part of
a packet as needed.

The number of bits to use from a source as well as the offset can be
be specified to allow a partial copy or dividing a big packet field
into multiple small fields (e.g. copying 128 bits of IPv6 to 4 tags).

An immediate value (or pointer to it) can be specified instead of the
level and the offset for the special FIELD_VALUE ID (or FIELD_POINTER).
Can be used as a source only, in case of user-provided values.

+Action: ``MODIFY_FIELD``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Modify ``dst`` field according to ``op`` selected (move, addition,
+substraction) with ``width`` bits of data from ``src`` field.
+
+Any arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag values)
+can be used as both source and destination fields as set by ``field``.
+The immediate value ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` (or a pointer to it
+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER``) is allowed as a source only.
+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_START`` is used to point to the beginning of a packet.
+
+``op`` selects the operation to perform on a destination field.
+- ``set`` copies the data from ``src`` field to ``dst`` field.
+- ``add`` adds together ``dst`` and ``src`` and stores the result into ``dst``.
+- ``sub`` substracts ``src`` from ``dst`` and stores the result into ``dst``
+
+``width`` defines a number of bits to use from ``src`` field.
+
+``level`` is used to access any packet field on any encapsulation level
+as well as any tag element in the tag array.
+- ``0`` means the default behaviour. Depending on the packet type, it can
+mean outermost, innermost or anything in between.
+- ``1`` requests access to the outermost packet encapsulation level.
+- ``2`` and subsequent values requests access to the specified packet
+encapsulation level, from outermost to innermost (lower to higher values).
+For the tag array ``level`` translates directly into the array index.
+
+``offset`` specifies the number of bits to skip from a field's start.
+That allows performing a partial copy of the needed part or to divide a big
+packet field into multiple smaller fields. Alternatively, ``offset`` allows
+going past the specified packet field boundary to copy a field to an
+arbitrary place in a packet, essentially providing a way to copy any part of
+a packet to any other part of it if supported by an underlying PMD driver.
+
+``value`` sets an immediate value to be used as a source or points to a
+location of the value in memory. It is used instead of ``level`` and ``offset``
+for ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` and ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER`` respectively.

Add support for the RTE_FLOW_ACTION_MODIFY_FIELD to the testpmd.
Implement CLI to create the modify_field action and supply all the
needed parameters to modify an arbitrary packet field (as well as
mark, tag or metadata) with data from another field or immediate
value.

Example of the flow is the following:
flow create 0 egress group 1 pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
  actions modify_field op set dst_type tag dst_level 2 dst_offset 8
          src_type gtp_teid src_level 0 src_offset 0 width 16 / end

This flow copies 16 bits from the second Tag in the Tags array
into the outermost GTP TEID packet header field. 8 bits of the
Tag are skipped as indicated by the dst_offset action parameter.

op, dst_type, src_type and width are the mandatory parameters to
specify. Levels and offset are 0 by default if they are not
overridden by a user. The operation can be set, add or sub.

Acked-by: Ori Kam <orika@nvidia.com>

---
v1: Initial implementation.
v2: Made dst_type, src_type and width only mandatory parameters.
v3: Reworked to accomodate API change from copy_field to modify_field.
v4: Renamed the mov operation to set.

Implement a generic modify rte flow API as described in RFC:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

This API allows modifying a destination header field with data from
a source header field. Number of bits to use from the source is specified.
Tag, Mark or Metadata can also be used as a source/destination to allow
saving/overwriting an arbitrary header field with a user-specified value.
Alternatively, an immediate value can be provided by a user as a source.

Outermost/innermost packet fields (and Tag array elements) are
accessible via the level parameter to facilitate the modification
of encapsulated packet header fields. The offset parameter provides
the flexibility to copy/set any part of a packet starting the
specified packet header field.

Implement the generic modify flow API to allow manipulations on
an arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) using
data from another field or a user-specified value.
This generic modify mechanism removes the necessity to implement
a separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future.

Supported operation are:
- set: copy data from source to destination.
- add: integer addition, stores the result in destination.
- sub: integer subtraction, stores the result in destination.

The field ID is used to specify the desired source/destination packet
field in order to simplify the API for various encapsulation models.
Specifying the packet field ID with the needed encapsulation level
is able to quickly get a packet field for any inner packet header.

Alternatively, the special ID (ITEM_START) can be used to point to
the very beginning of a packet. This ID in conjunction with the
offset parameter provides great flexibility to copy/modify any part of
a packet as needed.

The number of bits to use from a source as well as the offset can be
be specified to allow a partial copy or dividing a big packet field
into multiple small fields (e.g. copying 128 bits of IPv6 to 4 tags).

An immediate value (or pointer to it) can be specified instead of the
level and the offset for the special FIELD_VALUE ID (or FIELD_POINTER).
Can be used as a source only.

    +---------------+
 
+Action: ``MODIFY_FIELD``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Modify ``dst`` field according to ``op`` selected (move, addition,
+subtraction) with ``width`` bits of data from ``src`` field.
+
+Any arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag values)
+can be used as both source and destination fields as set by ``field``.
+The immediate value ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` (or a pointer to it
+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER``) is allowed as a source only.
+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_START`` is used to point to the beginning of a packet.
+
+``op`` selects the operation to perform on a destination field.
+- ``set`` copies the data from ``src`` field to ``dst`` field.
+- ``add`` adds together ``dst`` and ``src`` and stores the result into ``dst``.
+- ``sub`` subtracts ``src`` from ``dst`` and stores the result into ``dst``
+
+``width`` defines a number of bits to use from ``src`` field.
+
+``level`` is used to access any packet field on any encapsulation level
+as well as any tag element in the tag array.
+- ``0`` means the default behaviour. Depending on the packet type, it can
+mean outermost, innermost or anything in between.
+- ``1`` requests access to the outermost packet encapsulation level.
+- ``2`` and subsequent values requests access to the specified packet
+encapsulation level, from outermost to innermost (lower to higher values).
+For the tag array ``level`` translates directly into the array index.
+
+``offset`` specifies the number of bits to skip from a field's start.
+That allows performing a partial copy of the needed part or to divide a big
+packet field into multiple smaller fields. Alternatively, ``offset`` allows
+going past the specified packet field boundary to copy a field to an
+arbitrary place in a packet, essentially providing a way to copy any part of
+a packet to any other part of it if supported by an underlying PMD driver.
+
+``value`` sets an immediate value to be used as a source or points to a
+location of the value in memory. It is used instead of ``level`` and ``offset``
+for ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` and ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER`` respectively.

Add support for the RTE_FLOW_ACTION_MODIFY_FIELD to the testpmd.
Implement CLI to create the modify_field action and supply all the
needed parameters to modify an arbitrary packet field (as well as
mark, tag or metadata) with data from another field or immediate
value.

Example of the flow is the following:
flow create 0 egress group 1 pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
  actions modify_field op set dst_type tag dst_level 2 dst_offset 8
          src_type gtp_teid src_level 0 src_offset 0 width 16 / end

This flow copies 16 bits from the second Tag in the Tags array
into the outermost GTP TEID packet header field. 8 bits of the
Tag are skipped as indicated by the dst_offset action parameter.

op, dst_type, src_type and width are the mandatory parameters to
specify. Levels and offset are 0 by default if they are not
overridden by a user. The operation can be set, add or sub.

v1: Initial implementation.
v2: Made dst_type, src_type and width only mandatory parameters.
v3: Reworked to accomodate API change from copy_field to modify_field.
v4: Renamed the mov operation to set.

MOV is quite common usage (in Assembly) to specify  exactly the operation
we are going to introduce.

And we are going to assign the destination both from field and some immediate
value provided. So, MOV in my opinion would be more relevant than COPY.

With best regards,

I feel the interpretation of the level 0 is driver-dependent?

You should define what is a tag array.

All features of this specification require PMD support,
so I think it is useless to mention here.

I know the whole rte_flow guide has this kind of table,
but really it looks like doxygen and can be skipped here.

If really this redundant info is required, it should be RST definition lists,
not tables.

[...]

In my opinion, the most important info is in the doxygen comments.

Please add a doxygen comment for this enum.

Implement a generic modify rte flow API as described in RFC:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

This API allows modifying a destination header field with data from
a source header field. Number of bits to use from the source is specified.
Tag, Mark or Metadata can also be used as a source/destination to allow
saving/overwriting an arbitrary header field with a user-specified value.
Alternatively, an immediate value can be provided by a user as a source.

Outermost/innermost packet fields (and Tag array elements) are
accessible via the level parameter to facilitate the modification
of encapsulated packet header fields. The offset parameter provides
the flexibility to copy/set any part of a packet starting the
specified packet header field.

Example of RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD implementation for MLX5:

Implement the generic modify flow API to allow manipulations on
an arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) using
data from another field or a user-specified value.
This generic modify mechanism removes the necessity to implement
a separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future.

Supported operation are:
- set: copy data from source to destination.
- add: integer addition, stores the result in destination.
- sub: integer subtraction, stores the result in destination.

The field ID is used to specify the desired source/destination packet
field in order to simplify the API for various encapsulation models.
Specifying the packet field ID with the needed encapsulation level
is able to quickly get a packet field for any inner packet header.

Alternatively, the special ID (ITEM_START) can be used to point to
the very beginning of a packet. This ID in conjunction with the
offset parameter provides great flexibility to copy/modify any part of
a packet as needed.

The number of bits to use from a source as well as the offset can be
be specified to allow a partial copy or dividing a big packet field
into multiple small fields (e.g. copying 128 bits of IPv6 to 4 tags).

An immediate value (or a pointer to it) can be specified instead of the
level and the offset for the special FIELD_VALUE ID (or FIELD_POINTER).
Can be used as a source only.

+Action: ``MODIFY_FIELD``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Modify ``dst`` field according to ``op`` selected (set, addition,
+subtraction) with ``width`` bits of data from ``src`` field.
+
+Any arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag values)
+can be used as both source and destination fields as set by ``field``.
+The immediate value ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` (or a pointer to it

+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_START`` is used to point to the beginning of a packet.
+
+``op`` selects the operation to perform on a destination field.
+- ``set`` copies the data from ``src`` field to ``dst`` field.
+- ``add`` adds together ``dst`` and ``src`` and stores the result into ``dst``.
+- ``sub`` subtracts ``src`` from ``dst`` and stores the result into ``dst``
+
+``width`` defines a number of bits to use from ``src`` field.
+
+``level`` is used to access any packet field on any encapsulation level
+as well as any tag element in the tag array.
+- ``0`` means the default behaviour. Depending on the packet type, it can
+mean outermost, innermost or anything in between.
+- ``1`` requests access to the outermost packet encapsulation level.
+- ``2`` and subsequent values requests access to the specified packet
+encapsulation level, from outermost to innermost (lower to higher values).
+For the tag array (in case of multiple tags are supported and present)
+``level`` translates directly into the array index.
+
+``offset`` specifies the number of bits to skip from a field's start.
+That allows performing a partial copy of the needed part or to divide a big
+packet field into multiple smaller fields. Alternatively, ``offset`` allows
+going past the specified packet field boundary to copy a field to an
+arbitrary place in a packet, essentially providing a way to copy any part of
+a packet to any other part of it.

      =======================================================
 
+* **Added support of modify field action in the flow API.**
+
+  Added modify action support to perform various operations on
+  any arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag values):
+  ``RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD``.
+  supported operations are: overwriting a field with the content from
+  another field, addition and subtraction using an immediate value.

  Cc: viacheslavo, orika, thomas, ferruh.yigit, andrew.rybchenko, jerinjacobk

Add support for the RTE_FLOW_ACTION_MODIFY_FIELD to the testpmd.
Implement CLI to create the modify_field action and supply all the
needed parameters to modify an arbitrary packet field (as well as
mark, tag or metadata) with data from another field or immediate
value.

Example of the flow is the following:
flow create 0 egress group 1 pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
  actions modify_field op set dst_type tag dst_level 2 dst_offset 8
          src_type gtp_teid src_level 0 src_offset 0 width 16 / end

This flow copies 16 bits from the second Tag in the Tags array
into the outermost GTP TEID packet header field. 8 bits of the
Tag are skipped as indicated by the dst_offset action parameter.

op, dst_type, src_type and width are the mandatory parameters to
specify. Levels and offset are 0 by default if they are not
overridden by a user. The operation can be set, add or sub.

Signed-off-by: Alexander Kozyrev <akozyrev@nvidia.com>
Acked-by: Ori Kam <orika@nvidia.com>

---
v1: Initial implementation.
v2: Made dst_type, src_type and width only mandatory parameters.
v3: Reworked to accomodate API change from copy_field to modify_field.
v4: Renamed the mov operation to set.

"from src" only?
I think we could use it for dst as well.
I would remove "from src".

You should specify for RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER and RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE.

Please add a dot at the end of each comment.

Implement a generic modify rte flow API as described in RFC:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/85384/

This API allows modifying a destination header field with data from
a source header field. Number of bits to use from the source is specified.
Tag, Mark or Metadata can also be used as a source/destination to allow
saving/overwriting an arbitrary header field with a user-specified value.
Alternatively, an immediate value can be provided by a user as a source.

Outermost/innermost packet fields (and Tag array elements) are
accessible via the level parameter to facilitate the modification
of encapsulated packet header fields. The offset parameter provides
the flexibility to copy/set any part of a packet starting the
specified packet header field.

Example of RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_MODIFY_FIELD implementation for MLX5:

Implement the generic modify flow API to allow manipulations on
an arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) using
data from another field or a user-specified value.
This generic modify mechanism removes the necessity to implement
a separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future.

Supported operation are:
- set: copy data from source to destination.
- add: integer addition, stores the result in destination.
- sub: integer subtraction, stores the result in destination.

The field ID is used to specify the desired source/destination packet
field in order to simplify the API for various encapsulation models.
Specifying the packet field ID with the needed encapsulation level
is able to quickly get a packet field for any inner packet header.

Alternatively, the special ID (ITEM_START) can be used to point to
the very beginning of a packet. This ID in conjunction with the
offset parameter provides great flexibility to copy/modify any part of
a packet as needed.

The number of bits to use from a source as well as the offset can be
be specified to allow a partial copy or dividing a big packet field
into multiple small fields (e.g. copying 128 bits of IPv6 to 4 tags).

An immediate value (or a pointer to it) can be specified instead of the
level and the offset for the special FIELD_VALUE ID (or FIELD_POINTER).
Can be used as a source only.

+Action: ``MODIFY_FIELD``
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Modify ``dst`` field according to ``op`` selected (set, addition,
+subtraction) with ``width`` bits of data from ``src`` field.
+
+Any arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag values)
+can be used as both source and destination fields as set by ``field``.
+The immediate value ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` (or a pointer to it
+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER``) is allowed as a source only.
+``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_START`` is used to point to the beginning of a packet.
+
+``op`` selects the operation to perform on a destination field.
+- ``set`` copies the data from ``src`` field to ``dst`` field.
+- ``add`` adds together ``dst`` and ``src`` and stores the result into ``dst``.
+- ``sub`` subtracts ``src`` from ``dst`` and stores the result into ``dst``
+
+``width`` defines a number of bits to use from ``src`` field.
+
+``level`` is used to access any packet field on any encapsulation level
+as well as any tag element in the tag array.
+- ``0`` means the default behaviour. Depending on the packet type, it can
+mean outermost, innermost or anything in between.
+- ``1`` requests access to the outermost packet encapsulation level.
+- ``2`` and subsequent values requests access to the specified packet
+encapsulation level, from outermost to innermost (lower to higher values).
+For the tag array (in case of multiple tags are supported and present)
+``level`` translates directly into the array index.
+
+``offset`` specifies the number of bits to skip from a field's start.
+That allows performing a partial copy of the needed part or to divide a big
+packet field into multiple smaller fields. Alternatively, ``offset`` allows
+going past the specified packet field boundary to copy a field to an
+arbitrary place in a packet, essentially providing a way to copy any part of
+a packet to any other part of it.
+
+``value`` sets an immediate value to be used as a source or points to a
+location of the value in memory. It is used instead of ``level`` and ``offset``
+for ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_VALUE`` and ``RTE_FLOW_FIELD_POINTER`` respectively.

Add support for the RTE_FLOW_ACTION_MODIFY_FIELD to the testpmd.
Implement CLI to create the modify_field action and supply all the
needed parameters to modify an arbitrary packet field (as well as
mark, tag or metadata) with data from another field or immediate
value.

Example of the flow is the following:
flow create 0 egress group 1 pattern eth / ipv4 / udp / end
  actions modify_field op set dst_type tag dst_level 2 dst_offset 8
          src_type gtp_teid src_level 0 src_offset 0 width 16 / end

This flow copies 16 bits from the second Tag in the Tags array
into the outermost GTP TEID packet header field. 8 bits of the
Tag are skipped as indicated by the dst_offset action parameter.

op, dst_type, src_type and width are the mandatory parameters to
specify. Levels and offset are 0 by default if they are not
overridden by a user. The operation can be set, add or sub.
